Sasquatch Shaman: A Native Guide's Lifetime of Encounters With Bigfoot

WEBVTT
1
00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:02.399
And all of a sudden, I see it stand out
2
00:00:02.439 --> 00:00:06.040
in this boom boom boom, walking away from us, with
3
00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:09.359
the indicative feet though coming up, and see the white
4
00:00:09.400 --> 00:00:11.919
gray souls of its feet and the heat saying on it,
5
00:00:12.439 --> 00:00:13.800
and it just disappears.
6
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:17.640
That's not the only time my guest has seen sasquatch
7
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:21.440
slip out of sight right in front of him more
8
00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:32.600
than once. Stick around for more of his stories. I'm
9
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:36.640
ray you're Codega here to lead you through the shadows
10
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:40.679
of the unknown. My journeys have carried me across hidden
11
00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:45.439
corners of the world, two places steeped in wonder, whispers
12
00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:51.320
and unanswered questions. Walk with me as we uncover ancient civilizations,
13
00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:57.079
unravel unexplained phenomena, and chase the legends that refuse to die.
14
00:00:57.960 --> 00:01:08.000

26
00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:47.560
All right, everyone, welcome back to another episode of codegis
27
00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:51.159
Codex of Curiosities. My guest tonight'spent decades living on the
28
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:54.879
British Columbia coast as a hunting guide and a fisherman,
29
00:01:56.200 --> 00:02:00.840
and Sasquash was never a stranger out there. Welcome to
30
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:04.280
the Codex. Thomas Seawood, thank you very much for inviting
31
00:02:04.319 --> 00:02:07.319
me on. All right, all right, it's great to have
32
00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:09.599
you on. I had you on when I had my
33
00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:14.240
original show, The Lost Frequency. But it's time to let's
34
00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:18.039
do it again, and so let's jump right into this.
35
00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:20.520
I'd love if you could take me into the bush.
36
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:23.960
Tell me about the first time you knew Sasquatch was
37
00:02:24.199 --> 00:02:27.000
close before you even ever saw them.
38
00:02:27.879 --> 00:02:32.159
Bang, something hit the side of my tin trailer twenty
39
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:34.520
six feet long. We were anchored out on my commercial
40
00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:39.000
salmon sainboat with my girlfriend and dud crewman. Me and
41
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:41.520
one of the crew are standing on deck cooking crabs
42
00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:43.879
on a Coleman stove on the hatch covers, and that
43
00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:47.719
bang just resonated. But you right away, you don't jump
44
00:02:47.759 --> 00:02:50.319
the conclusions and go with the sasquatch hitting the side
45
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:53.840
of my trailer and my ten foot edition. You go
46
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:56.479
through your memory bank, what is that? What could possibly
47
00:02:56.520 --> 00:02:59.159
make that noise? Ranked falling from the big spruce tree
48
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:03.599
above widow Maker and hitting the roof. Maybe the metal
49
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:07.080
kerosene cans, I thought right away that I had underneath
50
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.639
the trailer. And then I thought, no, I'm those metal
51
00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:14.680
kerosene cans are in my garage back down in the city,
52
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:18.319
and so I'm trying to think what is this? And
53
00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:24.840
all of a sudden you hear this whistling chirk and
54
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:29.039
lip smacking and wall it's just about that big stink
55
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:32.039
in my native language of cockwall out and the qualkwalky
56
00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:35.400
walk people, that big stink almost making you dang. And
57
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:38.800
right there I knew that wasn't a branch, that wasn't
58
00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:44.280
kerosene cans, that wasn't a flying squirrel. That was to
59
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:48.439
the sasquatch. And then we saw two of them, one
60
00:03:48.479 --> 00:03:50.919
bigger than the other up front, walking by the side
61
00:03:50.919 --> 00:03:52.919
of that twenty six foot trailer, which had to be
62
00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:55.120
at least eight and a half to nine feet high,
63
00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:58.479
and the big one was just a few inches shorter.
64
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:02.479
And now it's dark, half moon out, no wind, no rain,
65
00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:05.879
and you see them walk by the trailer right there.
66
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:08.719
I knew it was sasquatch, especially with that smell and
67
00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:12.080
the whistle chirp noise, you know. And I went into
68
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:15.319
the galley and told Jojo, my girlfriend turned down the
69
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:17.560
boom box, and you and Trevor might want to come
70
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:20.800
outside and check this out. Me and Dean think there's
71
00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:23.920
two sasquatches on the beach. So of course they come
72
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:25.959
running out and all four of us are on deck
73
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:30.160
and we couldn't see anything. So I'd told everyone. I says,
74
00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:32.600
go to the bow of the boat in the wheelhouse,
75
00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:34.399
and I said, I'm going to turn the spotlight on.
76
00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:39.920
So my crewman standing outside the wheelhouse door, he's looking
77
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:42.079
up at the spotlight which is off, and I got
78
00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:44.199
to handle on the ceiling and I'm turning it and
79
00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:48.399
he's going left, down, down right, okay, right about there.
80
00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:51.600
Try that. I go three, two, one, hit the switch
81
00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:54.600
and there on the beach, above the high tide, mark
82
00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:58.759
in four or five foot high grass and spruce tree
83
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:02.120
sapling space out some of them about twelve or fifteen
84
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:05.720
foot talls. This huge sasquatch and this drop on his
85
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:08.560
knee and looked at the spotlight and you can see
86
00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:12.040
reflecting two red eyes one and a half by two
87
00:05:12.120 --> 00:05:15.319
eyes one eye as he's moving and on the beach
88
00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:18.600
to the high tide mark with the beargrass to see asparagus.
89
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:23.720
Is this female sasquatch drop with her back to us,
90
00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:26.000
but dropped in a fetal position. You can see her
91
00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:28.720
hands blot and grab her head and you could see
92
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:31.800
her eye reflecting when she was on her knees under
93
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:35.199
her right armpit looking at the spotlight, and you see
94
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:41.399
the hair, the crack of her buttocks, the grave black
95
00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:44.600
soles of her feet because she'd been walking in the
96
00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:47.360
high tide mark area which is kind of muddy sand.
97
00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:52.079
So it wasn't like the other pads of sasquatches I've
98
00:05:52.120 --> 00:05:55.639
seen that were indicative of patty white gray. These ones
99
00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:58.120
were sort of grayish white little bit but with a
100
00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:01.079
lot of black mud on it. And we watched them
101
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.439
for you know, what is that that deer and you
102
00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:05.680
know one of the crew that's no deer. We know
103
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:08.959
what that is. And we're looking at it, the spotlights on,
104
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:12.920
the motors off, and you know, I'm like, right away,
105
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:17.639
Jojo grabbed the camera. So she runs into our captain's
106
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:20.720
stateroom and behind us grabs the camera, comes running up,
107
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:22.879
gives it to me. I take it out of the case.
108
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:25.759
You know, back in the early nineties, thirty five millimeter.
109
00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:29.879
I grabbed it and turned it on, pushed the button
110
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:32.399
absolutely nothing, so you know, it does not film, and
111
00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:34.759
it so opened it up. Like Jojo grabs some film
112
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:38.360
and he could hear ripping covers open and drawers and
113
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:41.439
you name it. There's no film on board the boat.
114
00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:44.279
And I'm like, okay, we'll put it away, and you
115
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:47.240
know we're watching it and everything, and you know, right
116
00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:50.319
away we contemplated, you know, maybe we should get our guns.
117
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:53.360
You know, we'll be millionaires, we can get this one
118
00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:58.079
of them. And right away Jojo changed our minds by
119
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:02.199
going tom. You know that you're native tribes long you
120
00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:05.000
never harm them or put a gun to them, and
121
00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:08.680
you don't hunt them. But you remember the curse. If
122
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.959
you do injury shoot a sasquatch, you don't kill it
123
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:14.639
or even if you do kill it, the curse is
124
00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:16.839
gonna come, and nothing's gonna happen to you. It'd be
125
00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:20.040
your loved ones close to you. And you know, back
126
00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:22.839
in the Second World War, on that same island where
127
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:26.399
my abandoned native village is, some of the two men
128
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:28.560
jumped in a rowboat at night and were going with
129
00:07:28.680 --> 00:07:31.959
the tide up the island, and they had a big
130
00:07:32.040 --> 00:07:35.560
battery and a spotlight, and they would listen as they're
131
00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:39.279
rowing quietly. They heard something turn the spotlight out. Two
132
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:42.839
green eyes boom with the twelve gates, expecting a mink
133
00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:46.079
five dollars a pelt, which is big money back then.
134
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:48.720
But all of a sudden, the sasquatch put his hands
135
00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:52.720
out his face, screaming, jumped into the bushes screaming away
136
00:07:52.759 --> 00:07:55.360
and rolling around with all that buckshot in his face.
137
00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:58.360
And those two just turned the boat around, got back
138
00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:01.480
to the village, told people, and everyone was sort of, oh,
139
00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:04.920
that's bad, that's bad. Within six months, one of the
140
00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:07.879
guys drowned outside the village, and the fog at night
141
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:10.079
they could hear him screaming for his life, and then
142
00:08:10.199 --> 00:08:13.680
silence found his body the next day, and the other
143
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.759
one got in was in a port during the summer
144
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:20.800
salmon season and got stabbed and killed. So that sort
145
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:23.720
of resonates with all of my tribe that if you
146
00:08:23.759 --> 00:08:27.600
ever harm a sasquatch, bad omens gonna come to the
147
00:08:27.639 --> 00:08:30.560
loved ones around your family or you. So, you know,
148
00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:34.039
after that, Jojo convinced that that would be stupid, and
149
00:08:34.120 --> 00:08:36.600
you know, bring out the guns. So we you know,
150
00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:38.519
well we got to be in the move. They're in
151
00:08:38.559 --> 00:08:42.120
the spotlight. So we're throwing potatoes and eggs splashing in
152
00:08:42.200 --> 00:08:44.679
the water off our bow towards them, trying to be
153
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:48.200
to move. But that big old male, his eyes were
154
00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:55.080
scarlet poppy red when he first got illuminated. And people
155
00:08:55.080 --> 00:08:58.080
have always asked me, well, sasquatches have said to have
156
00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:01.559
red eyes. Well, we watch that go from red to
157
00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:06.120
light red to orange, dark orange to light orange to
158
00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:12.080
orange is yellow to yellowish green and then to yellow
159
00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:15.279
and like a deer and the female's one. And I
160
00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:18.399
think what it is is when that sasquatch walked out
161
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:22.000
with his mate to go through their harvest that night,
162
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:26.120
there was a boat anchored out Coleman stove making that
163
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:31.600
gas burning noise boom box going cackling girlfriends, you know,
164
00:09:31.879 --> 00:09:34.519
Trevor swearing because he's getting his butt kicked and crib
165
00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:38.279
on the gallley table playing cards. So I think the
166
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:41.360
rage built up into that sasquatch. And I think when
167
00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:45.960
I hit the spotlight, all of that rage and whatever
168
00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:48.120
you want to call it in your body to toss
169
00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:50.559
your own or whatever it is. And you know, that's
170
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:52.440
why the eyes are red. And that's why when you
171
00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:56.519
spotlight a deer deur in ret season, the buck's eyes
172
00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:59.240
will be red at first because it's all pumped up
173
00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:02.279
and jacked up. And I think that's what's indicative of
174
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:04.679
the sasquatch because I got to watch it go from
175
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:08.159
bright red down to yellow, and I think it was
176
00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:12.039
because it was calming, and you know, we tried everything
177
00:10:12.039 --> 00:10:14.559
to get a move and they wouldn't. So after about
178
00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:16.840
twenty five minutes, I'm thinking, you know, my boat was
179
00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:19.440
built in nineteen twenty seven. It's way older than me.
180
00:10:19.720 --> 00:10:22.000
It's a company boat by the fishing company that I
181
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:24.960
pick up every June for the salmon season through the
182
00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:27.600
summer and fall. I don't know when the last nine
183
00:10:27.600 --> 00:10:31.679
the batteries were ever changed or replaced. They're fixed, so
184
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:34.240
other than the saddened water to them, making them sure
185
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:37.360
they're always charged. So I'm like, oh, I better shut
186
00:10:37.399 --> 00:10:39.720
the spotlight off. And as soon as I shut it off,
187
00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:44.600
you could hear them get up, move through the foliage
188
00:10:44.600 --> 00:10:46.279
and everything, and all of a sudden they entered the
189
00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:49.879
wall of hemlock and cedar trees, you know, about five
190
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:52.960
to eight inches in diameter the trunk, and you could
191
00:10:52.960 --> 00:10:56.440
hear that track and then all of a sudden, it's
192
00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:01.799
rotten tree. You can hear it woo pushed down a
193
00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:04.679
dead tree, which is indicative of what sasquatches do. And
194
00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:06.879
they're p oed and they don't want you around or
195
00:11:06.919 --> 00:11:10.200
following them, and then they just sort of disappeared into
196
00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:13.519
the darkness, and we thought it was over. We're like, holy,
197
00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:16.080
did that really just take place? And we're all chattering
198
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:19.159
away like a bunch of four three sasquatches. Trevor ran
199
00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:21.320
away right away. He didn't want anything to do with it.
200
00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:25.399
He went downstairs to his bunk. So Jojo goes to bed.
201
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:27.799
Me and Din are setting up smoking cigarettes, you know,
202
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:31.480
talking about everything that happened and so forth, and from
203
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:34.000
the other part of the bay where there's a little
204
00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:38.440
creak and the water is half tied, and so the
205
00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:41.320
flats with sand and the boulders of the stream or
206
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:46.759
it's exposed. All of a sudden, you hear this why
207
00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:49.720
and what we call a blue heron or a shag polk.
208
00:11:49.840 --> 00:11:53.080
They look like pterodactys. It comes when they're spooked. They'll
209
00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:56.200
fly at night squawking, and it comes flying out of
210
00:11:56.240 --> 00:11:59.000
the bay past the boat. You know right away being
211
00:11:59.039 --> 00:12:03.320
you know, you know, you're like stopper spooked it. And
212
00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:11.919
then you hear that that sob sasquatch is walking on
213
00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:15.679
the stream that has washed away the sediment so it's
214
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:18.639
just boulders and you can hear it walking down into
215
00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:21.759
the beach. We ran up the pilot house, hit the
216
00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:26.000
spotlight and we got partial eye shine and a little
217
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:27.919
bit of a dark shadow of a form, but we
218
00:12:27.960 --> 00:12:30.480
couldn't make it out because of the mist coming off
219
00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:34.919
the sands and everything. And then you hear it across
220
00:12:34.919 --> 00:12:37.879
the sand and disappear on the opposite side of the bay.
221
00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:41.519
We turned the spotlight off or on deck now watching
222
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:47.159
and listening, and you just see this head and these
223
00:12:47.240 --> 00:12:50.559
shoulders that I would tell doctor John Bendernagel afterwards when
224
00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:53.120
I gave him my report. The shoulders are like a
225
00:12:53.159 --> 00:12:57.399
forty five gallon drum in half and width. It was huge,
226
00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:00.360
and you know, but that's nighttime. You know, there's a
227
00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:02.200
little bit of fear, so it's bigger than what it
228
00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:06.000
actually sees. It's dark, but you know, to my recollection,
229
00:13:06.120 --> 00:13:08.159
it was like a forty five gallon drum in half
230
00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:10.799
its girth and it was huge. And then you just
231
00:13:10.879 --> 00:13:19.320
hear it smelling and absorbing our smells, and that really
232
00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:23.000
makes your heart flutter because now you're not just the observer,
233
00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:26.759
you're the stalk. You're the hunted, and you know, kind
234
00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:30.720
of thinking holy. And then it disappears into the darkness.
235
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:35.440
Then you can hear it going through the bush crack.
236
00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:38.919
Then it comes out onto the hard rock upper part
237
00:13:38.960 --> 00:13:41.399
of the beach again. And you got to remember this
238
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:44.639
is first week October. So the wood on the beach
239
00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:47.559
was driftwood, and some of the logs are three foot thick,
240
00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:51.960
the bigger ones. They're all tan gray sun bleached from
241
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:55.639
the summer sun. The rocks are all gray with white
242
00:13:55.759 --> 00:13:58.720
gray liking on it. The moon's out, so it's the
243
00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:02.519
backdrops illuminate, so you can see this crouching form, and
244
00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:04.159
all of a sudden it goes into the bush again.
245
00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:08.919
Crack comes out again on the beach crouching and we
246
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:12.159
see it better now. Second time it came out and
247
00:14:12.200 --> 00:14:14.279
it goes into the bush the game. And that's when
248
00:14:14.279 --> 00:14:16.480
it dawned on me, because I'd walked through those bushes
249
00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:19.320
many times, and I'm thinking he's coming out onto the
250
00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:23.440
beach wherever there's heavy accumulation of the slough plant, which
251
00:14:23.480 --> 00:14:26.240
when you walk through it it sounds like you got shaken.
252
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:30.159
A plastic tark is very noisy, so it's coming out.
253
00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:34.480
Every time it gets the slough goes back in. Then
254
00:14:34.600 --> 00:14:36.919
third time it come out, you can really see it
255
00:14:36.960 --> 00:14:39.879
in the moonlight because the moon's now right behind us.
256
00:14:40.399 --> 00:14:43.679
And Dean this and I'm thinking, oh Jesus, that thing
257
00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:46.200
grabs a log or a rock and throws it at us.
258
00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:48.679
So I better get behind the galley door a bit
259
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:51.799
that's open with Dean there. And I told Dean, you
260
00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:55.120
better get behind the kind of a side steak the
261
00:14:55.279 --> 00:14:58.799
rigging from the mask, because if it throws something, he'll
262
00:14:58.879 --> 00:14:59.200
kill you.
263
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:05.039
Of course, yeah, that's a little uh, yeah, that's intense,
264
00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:07.879
you know, seeing all this and this is all one experience,
265
00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:08.840
but please keep going.
266
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:11.080
Then all of a sudden, Dean goes, what the f
267
00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:13.799
is that? And he's pointing and that things stood up
268
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:17.480
and wow, and you can see the hair hanging off
269
00:15:17.519 --> 00:15:19.720
his left arm. And then he still stands up and
270
00:15:19.720 --> 00:15:22.279
he's striding and you see the long hair off his
271
00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:26.480
shoulders and bicet back of his biceps, his long hair
272
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:30.120
in his head and legs and from the knee. And
273
00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:32.240
that's what really got me was from the knee to
274
00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:36.799
the ass to the shoulders. Was like Pattie, it's just
275
00:15:36.919 --> 00:15:40.759
went to this massive body with his bank head and
276
00:15:40.799 --> 00:15:45.480
he's huge, swinging arms and grabbing. I ran to the wheel.
277
00:15:45.480 --> 00:15:47.679
I was hitting the spot and it spun it. And
278
00:15:47.720 --> 00:15:49.840
you see it reach out and grab an alder tree
279
00:15:49.840 --> 00:15:52.840
about four inches in diameter and pull it and it's
280
00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:56.240
silver barked and pulls it and it steps up onto
281
00:15:56.320 --> 00:15:58.960
the bank, off the high tide mark into the hedge
282
00:15:59.000 --> 00:16:02.080
of the forest. It let go his tree and you
283
00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:05.120
can see it and leaves sort of starting to come
284
00:16:05.159 --> 00:16:07.360
down a few of the dry ones, and it just
285
00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:12.519
turns around, looks at the boat like you sobs, what
286
00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:14.960
the hell are you doing? Disturbing my harvest. And he
287
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:16.960
turned and went to the forest, and he was no
288
00:16:17.039 --> 00:16:21.559
longer going to slell silent. He was a crash crash,
289
00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:25.240
like shaking a plastic tart. And he stops and he's
290
00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:28.080
right beaming a boat in the forest. You can't see him,
291
00:16:28.480 --> 00:16:32.559
and he does that high pitched deep whistle chirp, lips
292
00:16:32.600 --> 00:16:36.600
smacking warble, and then in the forest further up you
293
00:16:36.679 --> 00:16:40.240
hear a higher pitched whistle chirp and a little bit
294
00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:44.080
of not a warble, but and then you hear them
295
00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:49.879
both come together and then they just walk into the
296
00:16:49.879 --> 00:16:53.399
forest away from us and silence. And that was an
297
00:16:53.440 --> 00:16:57.679
experience the first time I ever knew before I seen
298
00:16:57.720 --> 00:17:00.440
them that there was a sasquatch around me, but there
299
00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:01.279
was actually two.
300
00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:06.839
There's actually two there. That is a captivating story right there.
301
00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:08.720
That's one way to start this off, you know, we
302
00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:14.039
just he dived right in headfirst into this. So yeah, So, Thomas,
303
00:17:14.559 --> 00:17:20.599
how long have you been researching Bigfoot? And I assume
304
00:17:20.680 --> 00:17:23.559
that there is stories through your tribe as well, but
305
00:17:23.640 --> 00:17:27.720
how long have you personally been looking into Bigfoot yourself?
306
00:17:27.759 --> 00:17:30.039
Now? Well, number one, there's no such thing as a
307
00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:35.640
Sasquatch researcher, not until someone gets Diane Fossey Jane Goodall
308
00:17:35.759 --> 00:17:39.839
interaction puts their ppe on so they don't transfer their
309
00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:44.720
human diseases onto the Sasquatch clan. And once they have
310
00:17:44.839 --> 00:17:48.400
that interaction and get close up photographs and videos that
311
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:51.319
the doctors of the different anatomy of a human and
312
00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:55.279
primate can study and confirm that, oh, no, the dental structure,
313
00:17:55.319 --> 00:17:58.319
you can tell list it's not AI, it's not fake,
314
00:17:58.799 --> 00:18:04.279
it's not a muppet. And the people that study facial
315
00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:07.400
muscular anatomy, they can say, oh, you can tell that
316
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:10.160
so many hundred of these muscles are moving as it's
317
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:13.400
talking or eating an apple. And the person who studies
318
00:18:13.640 --> 00:18:16.319
eyes and optometrists can say, you can see the dilation
319
00:18:16.599 --> 00:18:20.119
of this pupil and the irish color and dispersement of
320
00:18:20.119 --> 00:18:22.880
the colors and so forth, that that you can't fake
321
00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:28.079
an eyeball like and someone like late doctor Grover Krentz
322
00:18:28.319 --> 00:18:31.559
or late doctor Jeff Melgum can look at the foot
323
00:18:31.599 --> 00:18:34.200
feet and the videos and pictures and say, well, that
324
00:18:34.319 --> 00:18:38.000
confirms it. There is a mid tarsal break, or oh
325
00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:40.480
everyone was wrong, there is no mid tarsal break. But
326
00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:43.400
look at the epidermal regis, and there's no way you
327
00:18:43.440 --> 00:18:45.640
can fake that. You can see the muscle movement in
328
00:18:45.680 --> 00:18:48.519
the foot as its toes are curling and so forth.
329
00:18:49.279 --> 00:18:52.920
So once that individual or individuals do that, they're gonna
330
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:56.480
get their crispy picture with the sasquatch and themselves on
331
00:18:56.519 --> 00:18:59.640
the cover of National Geographic, like Diane Fosse and Jane
332
00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:03.000
Goodall and others, and they're going to have it backed
333
00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:06.880
up with editorial inside with a lot of scientific evidence
334
00:19:06.960 --> 00:19:10.839
of we really did have an interaction with a primate,
335
00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:14.480
a relic, HumanID a human. We don't know, but we
336
00:19:14.559 --> 00:19:17.039
will know one thing. After the DNA tests come in,
337
00:19:17.200 --> 00:19:19.559
after they swab them inside of a mouth with a
338
00:19:19.599 --> 00:19:23.279
Q tip or whatever, we'll get the answer to the question.
339
00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:26.519
And now we have the first researchers of sasquatch, because
340
00:19:26.519 --> 00:19:29.799
everyone else is either full of bs, their eyes should
341
00:19:29.799 --> 00:19:33.119
be brown when they call themselves a researcher, or they're
342
00:19:33.160 --> 00:19:38.160
suffering from inferiority complex, so they have to say I
343
00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:44.160
am a researcher of sasquatch and no such so with me,
344
00:19:44.359 --> 00:19:47.720
though I like that approach. Oh yeah, and you know
345
00:19:47.759 --> 00:19:50.640
it's my new path is what I coin is the
346
00:19:50.680 --> 00:19:53.480
Sasquatch shaman. I know so much that I've learned from
347
00:19:53.480 --> 00:19:57.599
Sasquatch and other tribe members and others that are investigators
348
00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:01.279
a Sasquatch that I'm bringing, and fourth, what I know
349
00:20:01.480 --> 00:20:04.359
to share with other people. Sixty one had two heart attacks,
350
00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:06.559
smoke a pack of cigarettes a day. You know, I
351
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:08.839
used to be one hundred and fifty seven pounds heavy year.
352
00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:10.880
I had more chins in a Chinese phone book. So
353
00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:12.920
you know, I'm not going to be on this planet
354
00:20:12.960 --> 00:20:15.319
for another three or four decades, that's for sure. But
355
00:20:15.359 --> 00:20:17.799
at least I can pass on that knowledge so that
356
00:20:18.200 --> 00:20:21.519
through podcasts and other things in writing, and people come
357
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:24.599
to expeditions like me, like there's a gentleman to my
358
00:20:24.720 --> 00:20:28.000
left here, he's watching everything. He's on an expedition with
359
00:20:28.079 --> 00:20:32.000
me right now these two days. But it's to give
360
00:20:32.119 --> 00:20:35.559
that knowledge. So I always tell people that when you
361
00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:40.079
entered the East coast of North America Turtle Island aka
362
00:20:40.200 --> 00:20:43.319
Sasquatch Island as I call it, and you drop your
363
00:20:43.359 --> 00:20:46.039
rusty anchor, and you wanted to go across the continent
364
00:20:46.160 --> 00:20:51.000
to find everything and see the western scupam chop, the
365
00:20:51.000 --> 00:20:54.119
Big Salt Water. Well, Lewis and Clark did the smart thing.
366
00:20:54.640 --> 00:20:59.000
They hired Carbonu and his wife Zaka juwea an India
367
00:20:59.400 --> 00:21:02.119
and they were the interpreter guides, and they would be
368
00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:05.200
able to communicate with a nook jargon, which was the
369
00:21:05.279 --> 00:21:08.720
Indian language that all tribes spoke prior to contact and
370
00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:12.319
this afterwards, and they were able to communicate to the
371
00:21:12.640 --> 00:21:15.799
diverse amount of Indian tribes. They came across to find
372
00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:18.200
the mouth of the Columbia River and see the Western
373
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:21.440
Scookum truck, the Great Salt Water. So Lewis and Clark
374
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:24.359
had the wherewithal to go to the Indian to get
375
00:21:24.400 --> 00:21:26.880
and to the other Indians to get the knowledge to
376
00:21:27.000 --> 00:21:30.680
find out the unknown. So that's what I'm sort of
377
00:21:30.720 --> 00:21:33.240
looked at by a lot of people. And what I'm
378
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:37.680
coining is, oh, be smarter, go charge an Indian guide.
379
00:21:37.960 --> 00:21:40.839
You know, anyone knows anything about Sasquatch, It's it's the
380
00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:44.839
Indians of North America. You know, a lot of the
381
00:21:44.839 --> 00:21:47.920
Indian reserves are tight lipped about the activity they have
382
00:21:48.039 --> 00:21:52.200
on their Indian reserves. And they're hiding and withholding their
383
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:58.119
videos and audios and still pictures and tracks. You know this, gentlemen,
384
00:21:58.160 --> 00:21:59.880
we're gonna be meeting up with tonight. He went to
385
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:04.599
Bellakula last year and interacted, was accepted by the New
386
00:22:04.640 --> 00:22:07.599
Hawk Indian tribe some of the members and oh, you
387
00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:10.400
got to go see Clayton Max Frand's grandson over here.
388
00:22:10.440 --> 00:22:13.160
Come on, and next you know, he sees a big, huge,
389
00:22:13.240 --> 00:22:16.720
eighteen nineteen foot cast of a sasquatch. Oh yeah, we
390
00:22:17.200 --> 00:22:20.079
got that cast right in Mayori and it's looked and
391
00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:22.599
so and so's window next door and so forth. So
392
00:22:23.319 --> 00:22:26.720
if you want to know about sasquatch, go to the Indians.
393
00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:29.720
That's your best approach. And number one, you're going to
394
00:22:29.839 --> 00:22:34.359
learn something that most people don't understand that Sasquatches are
395
00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:40.119
very firmable respect. You show them respect, they show you respect.
396
00:22:40.200 --> 00:22:42.480
So when you go to an Indian that you've hey,
397
00:22:42.519 --> 00:22:45.359
I'm a sasquatch investigator, maybe I should go to the
398
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:50.720
Indian and ask them protocol permission to investigate sasquatch in
399
00:22:50.759 --> 00:22:53.519
their tribal territories and as if there's someone that can
400
00:22:53.559 --> 00:22:56.519
help me or guide me, and their like will say yeah,
401
00:22:56.559 --> 00:22:59.079
but cousin Johnny, he's pretty good with sasquatches on our
402
00:22:59.119 --> 00:23:01.759
res You know, I think you pay them one hundred
403
00:23:01.799 --> 00:23:03.480
and fifty bucks a day, you'd be happy to take
404
00:23:03.519 --> 00:23:07.799
you out and or oh no, are my cousin Soons
405
00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:11.559
who does sasquatch expeditions. He charges three hundred and seventy
406
00:23:11.559 --> 00:23:14.000
five dollars per person all inclusive. But this is what
407
00:23:14.119 --> 00:23:16.319
you get. And the next thing you know, you're being
408
00:23:16.359 --> 00:23:19.279
brought to on the Indian reserve and throughout your tribal
409
00:23:19.400 --> 00:23:25.279
territories and you're getting their beliefs, understanding, perspectives, encounters, and
410
00:23:25.680 --> 00:23:28.279
all of a sudden, you're not one of those bumbling,
411
00:23:28.319 --> 00:23:32.119
stumbling speculators. You're someone that's going, Wow, I'm really learning
412
00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:35.240
about Sasquatch because I'm reaching out to the Indians. And
413
00:23:36.119 --> 00:23:40.960
number one, Sasquatch shamanism to me is taking the understanding
414
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:44.680
of the sasquatch where they leave broken cockle shells, a
415
00:23:44.759 --> 00:23:48.400
type of shell fish on our beaches in coastal British Columbia.
416
00:23:48.880 --> 00:23:51.200
And when you go to the day that you know
417
00:23:51.319 --> 00:23:54.680
is full of cockles and clams, you drop your anchor
418
00:23:54.680 --> 00:23:57.599
at daytimes you don't travel at night usually, and you
419
00:23:57.640 --> 00:24:00.160
go ashore with a dinghy or send someone and they
420
00:24:00.200 --> 00:24:02.640
looked around the high water mark and all of a sudden, oh, well,
421
00:24:02.960 --> 00:24:05.559
there's a pile of broken shells with meat still in
422
00:24:05.960 --> 00:24:09.559
a little bit of meat. It's the sasquatch telling you
423
00:24:09.960 --> 00:24:13.200
me or me and my plan family are harvesting here
424
00:24:13.240 --> 00:24:17.680
at low tide, when it's at nighttime. Please give us respect.
425
00:24:17.720 --> 00:24:19.960
So you're getting your DKO back to the boat Pulley
426
00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:24.839
anchor and go left porter starboard a mile or so
427
00:24:25.039 --> 00:24:28.599
or less to another harvestable beach. Do the same truthing.
428
00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:33.160
If there's no broken shells, no shaking of foliage, no
429
00:24:33.680 --> 00:24:37.519
things being tossed towards you but not at you, no
430
00:24:37.759 --> 00:24:41.720
tree being pushed down, no tree break, no tree knock,
431
00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:45.240
then there's no sasquatches there, and it's okay for you
432
00:24:45.279 --> 00:24:47.839
to dig your shell fish at that beach. And my
433
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:51.680
trap tribe in others of coastal Pacific Northwest have had
434
00:24:51.720 --> 00:24:56.480
that respect interaction with sasquatch communication for tens of thousands
435
00:24:56.519 --> 00:25:01.079
of years. And that's what we in the sasage watch ology,
436
00:25:01.240 --> 00:25:05.200
sasquatch industry need to take from sasquatch that we've got
437
00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:07.440
to be as respectful or more than they are.
438
00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:12.680
I think that it's a very respectful to you know,
439
00:25:12.759 --> 00:25:15.200
to pay to have that exchange, you know, if to
440
00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:17.440
pay someone to guide you, to teach you. You know,
441
00:25:17.440 --> 00:25:19.960
a lot of times people expect things to be free.
442
00:25:20.000 --> 00:25:22.839
It's like, well why am I paying you? Well, you know,
443
00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:25.440
there should always be an exchange, you know, whether it
444
00:25:25.519 --> 00:25:29.480
be exchange of information or exchange of energy of sorts.
445
00:25:29.519 --> 00:25:32.680
You know, like you're giving the information and these stories,
446
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:35.319
Well then I will give you money, because money, A
447
00:25:35.319 --> 00:25:38.039
lot of people don't understand money. There is energy as well.
448
00:25:38.240 --> 00:25:41.440
You know, I put energy into something and I get
449
00:25:41.480 --> 00:25:45.880
this paper out of it, and that represents the energy
450
00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:48.160
that I put in, and I can transfer that to
451
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:51.880
you or to someone else, And I actually I don't
452
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:54.119
have any issues with that. You know, there should always
453
00:25:54.160 --> 00:25:57.160
be an exchange, a trade of sorts, you know. I
454
00:25:57.160 --> 00:26:00.000
think it's a I think it's important to do that.
455
00:26:00.640 --> 00:26:04.000
Now. Now, Thomas, where do we go from here? Then?
456
00:26:04.119 --> 00:26:08.400
So, sasquatch shamanism I think is a pretty cool term.
457
00:26:09.240 --> 00:26:11.319
I hope you coined that as well, because I think
458
00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:14.119
that's great and it's great for you to pass that
459
00:26:14.200 --> 00:26:17.559
information on. I'd love to hear some more of your experiences.
460
00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:19.160
Have you ever.
461
00:26:19.119 --> 00:26:22.720
Encountered any like. Of course, they seemed aggressive, But was
462
00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:25.279
there some it seemed like they're just trying to protect
463
00:26:25.319 --> 00:26:29.240
their area. But was there some that went further than
464
00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:33.000
that that might have put you into some serious trouble?
465
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:36.039
Oh yeah, a few times I can count on one hand.
466
00:26:36.680 --> 00:26:39.640
One of the best ones was I used to be
467
00:26:40.160 --> 00:26:44.119
one of the first whale watched seat, kayak and grizzly
468
00:26:44.200 --> 00:26:48.279
bear boat tour operators in the Pacific Northwest, and in
469
00:26:48.440 --> 00:26:52.160
two thousand and four I built cabins that were eight
470
00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:54.960
foot by ten foot there but they looked like a
471
00:26:55.000 --> 00:27:00.240
cedar native big house with native orca design across the front.
472
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:05.119
Five of them on my Indian Reserve island pardon me,
473
00:27:05.160 --> 00:27:07.640
and I bought a red, white and black sea kayak fleet.
474
00:27:08.519 --> 00:27:11.839
I had an aluminum tour boat with native killowheel designs
475
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:14.079
that we painted on the bow and down the sides.
476
00:27:14.119 --> 00:27:18.519
Looked like one of those aircraft jets that war hoogs
477
00:27:18.599 --> 00:27:20.680
with the big shark teeth. It looked like that with
478
00:27:20.799 --> 00:27:25.640
killowhales and it was thirty two feet long, twelve passenger.
479
00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:27.839
I called it my water Lamborghini because it was the
480
00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:29.880
same price. In two thousand and four when I had
481
00:27:29.880 --> 00:27:34.039
it built as Lamborghini off the showroom floor in Vancouver.
482
00:27:34.799 --> 00:27:38.319
And you know, we used to do the whale watching,
483
00:27:38.400 --> 00:27:41.720
sea kayaking and everything. So I built these cabins. And
484
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:44.519
a year later, that end of that season, there was
485
00:27:44.720 --> 00:27:47.160
too many people. It was on my Indian reserve. It
486
00:27:47.200 --> 00:27:50.720
was just two bunch of politics up the northern vancou Islands.
487
00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:53.839
So I moved the cabins. They're a pannable, so I
488
00:27:53.839 --> 00:27:56.680
took them apart and got a landing craft to bring
489
00:27:56.720 --> 00:27:59.200
them down to where I was living further down Johnson
490
00:27:59.279 --> 00:28:03.640
Straits for Campbell River, in a community called Sayward. And
491
00:28:04.240 --> 00:28:06.480
the next spring we brought him up in April by
492
00:28:06.519 --> 00:28:10.920
another landing craft and we erected these five cabins and
493
00:28:11.079 --> 00:28:14.119
we started doing sak frisbee bear adventures with the tour
494
00:28:14.200 --> 00:28:17.000
boat and everything, and everything was case ross aah good
495
00:28:17.079 --> 00:28:20.880
because I guess the Sasquatches weren't around during that time
496
00:28:20.920 --> 00:28:23.119
of the year. Maybe I don't know, they might have
497
00:28:23.160 --> 00:28:26.799
done their seasonal migration. But anyway, first week of August
498
00:28:26.960 --> 00:28:31.400
I told my worker or two workers and my sister
499
00:28:31.519 --> 00:28:34.079
that hey, let's go up to the cabins spend a
500
00:28:34.079 --> 00:28:37.440
few days and I wanted in the afternoon cut up
501
00:28:37.480 --> 00:28:39.680
all the driftwood logs on the beach. But you know
502
00:28:39.680 --> 00:28:41.720
I had the largest power set at Hustle Barn and
503
00:28:41.799 --> 00:28:44.319
make you know, I's called the separator. It separated the
504
00:28:44.359 --> 00:28:46.559
men and boys real quick. Boys didn't want to pull
505
00:28:46.559 --> 00:28:48.319
the polk card and use it. And I said, yeah,
506
00:28:48.480 --> 00:28:51.039
my way, give me that thing. Boom, and I cut
507
00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:53.960
all these logs up two tanks of gas. When I
508
00:28:54.039 --> 00:28:56.759
ran out of gas the second tank, I'm sweating away
509
00:28:56.799 --> 00:29:00.559
and everything and hollered at Ryan, my teenage native, throwing
510
00:29:00.559 --> 00:29:02.599
me up pepsi and he threw me one and I
511
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:05.640
grabbed it, drank half of it, sat down and win
512
00:29:05.720 --> 00:29:09.200
them folding chairs with a beverage holder and put it
513
00:29:09.240 --> 00:29:12.599
in there, admiring my work. Now it's up to the
514
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:14.920
two young guys now to push all of the logs
515
00:29:14.920 --> 00:29:18.519
out with the sixteen foot plus high tide to push
516
00:29:18.559 --> 00:29:20.200
it in the water, so the tide he would take
517
00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:22.519
it out, so we'd have a nice pea gravel and
518
00:29:22.599 --> 00:29:26.519
sand beach for our sea kayaks before tours coming up.
519
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:28.799
What is why I sat down All of a sudden,
520
00:29:28.839 --> 00:29:33.160
there's two trees passed up a rock bluff maybe twenty
521
00:29:33.160 --> 00:29:36.680
feet high. By my cookos, these two cedar trees to
522
00:29:36.799 --> 00:29:40.000
start shaking like you see a demon in a spooky movie.
523
00:29:40.839 --> 00:29:44.640
Is a horror movie, and it's just like I look
524
00:29:44.720 --> 00:29:47.240
at it, and I'm like I saw it. So I
525
00:29:47.279 --> 00:29:51.000
look at my dog, land Claims, land Claims, and he's
526
00:29:51.039 --> 00:29:53.759
a bush dog, six years old. He's trained to spin
527
00:29:53.880 --> 00:29:56.839
bears and keep animals away from my children. He's he's
528
00:29:56.880 --> 00:29:59.440
no whimp. He's a real dog. And he goes running up,
529
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:04.160
looks behind down below the two shaking trees on top
530
00:30:04.200 --> 00:30:06.799
of the rock bluff because there's like a pinnacle, and
531
00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:09.680
all of a sudden, he just goes ping, springs himself
532
00:30:09.680 --> 00:30:11.839
from the rock wall, does a one eighty in the year,
533
00:30:12.480 --> 00:30:14.839
hits the ground with his tail between his legs and
534
00:30:14.839 --> 00:30:17.440
it just runs. And then he gets to the high
535
00:30:17.440 --> 00:30:19.799
water mark, which is sixteen foot high now and all
536
00:30:19.799 --> 00:30:22.759
the drift tood pieces like firewood and smaller floating, and
537
00:30:22.839 --> 00:30:25.160
he's like doing Jesus Christ thing, trying to walk on
538
00:30:25.279 --> 00:30:29.200
water jumps in the dingy. I'm gonna started thinking like, well,
539
00:30:29.240 --> 00:30:34.359
that's not good. And this big boulder probably did six
540
00:30:34.440 --> 00:30:39.160
feet long four or five feet in diameter, comes tumbling
541
00:30:39.240 --> 00:30:42.880
down the rock wall crashed right into my sort of
542
00:30:43.000 --> 00:30:45.400
at that time it was grassy, and I was like,
543
00:30:45.880 --> 00:30:51.599
what the hell. And I'm like, tell Ryan, get my gun.
544
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:54.680
He's like, it's on the turbot on a mooring boy
545
00:30:54.759 --> 00:30:58.880
with two lines going off the sport and starboard side
546
00:30:58.880 --> 00:31:01.279
in the stern to keep them into the waves. Because
547
00:31:01.279 --> 00:31:04.319
there's a big thirty not westerly blowing and we got
548
00:31:04.319 --> 00:31:07.119
like three foot waves coming in. So I had my
549
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:10.160
boat bow into it on the morning boy with the
550
00:31:10.200 --> 00:31:13.240
safety lines. And I'm thinking, okay, I got no gun.
551
00:31:13.279 --> 00:31:15.759
We'll get me a machete, get me an ax. And
552
00:31:16.039 --> 00:31:19.079
at that time I look behind the cookhouse because I'm thinking, okay,
553
00:31:19.079 --> 00:31:22.559
there's a distraction. What are they distracting me from the
554
00:31:22.640 --> 00:31:25.240
shaking trees and boulders. So I look by my cookhouse
555
00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:27.920
to my right, and they're in the v of the
556
00:31:27.920 --> 00:31:30.240
cedar trees. And I had to wear with all and
557
00:31:30.279 --> 00:31:33.240
I seen the top of the head. Okay, it's as
558
00:31:33.319 --> 00:31:36.759
high as that not or branch on the tree. But
559
00:31:36.920 --> 00:31:42.240
this big, huge sasquatch looking at me and goes and
560
00:31:42.319 --> 00:31:46.200
I'm just seeing the pendons, the veins, the fierceness, the
561
00:31:46.240 --> 00:31:50.200
wrinkles around the highes, and I'm just like, Jesus, woase
562
00:31:50.279 --> 00:31:53.160
get the dinghy, my sister, you two get the other dinghy.
563
00:31:53.240 --> 00:31:55.480
And I'm just like, we got to get the hell
564
00:31:55.599 --> 00:31:58.960
out of here. That thing's big and he's mean aggressive.
565
00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:02.440
So my sister she's doing the Jesus thing, trying to
566
00:32:02.440 --> 00:32:04.519
walk on water now, and I'm like, slow down, you're
567
00:32:04.519 --> 00:32:07.640
gonna break your leg. She gets in the dingy. I
568
00:32:08.119 --> 00:32:09.880
the last one. I want to see the two crew
569
00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:13.200
men getting their dingy. I jump in and my sister
570
00:32:13.240 --> 00:32:16.480
grabs about the stern line and starts pulling it. Well,
571
00:32:16.839 --> 00:32:20.559
John boat is a rectangle and it's aluminum and small. Well,
572
00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:23.160
she sideways and almost flips us. I'm like, slow down,
573
00:32:23.200 --> 00:32:25.680
you're gonna flip us. And we ended up getting to
574
00:32:25.720 --> 00:32:28.359
the boat cutting lines getting out of there. But it's
575
00:32:28.720 --> 00:32:31.960
a big westerly with nab tide, so the waves are huge,
576
00:32:31.960 --> 00:32:34.000
and I'm just saying, oh, let's go around the corner
577
00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:36.160
to the abandoned log landing where they have that big
578
00:32:36.240 --> 00:32:38.759
metal ship is a breakwater for when they used to
579
00:32:38.920 --> 00:32:42.200
sort logs on the water, and my sister wouldn't have
580
00:32:42.279 --> 00:32:44.960
anything of it. No, you get me back to say word,
581
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:46.759
you know, which is half an hour on a flat
582
00:32:46.839 --> 00:32:51.400
long But I got a thirty five knot westerly afternoon
583
00:32:51.440 --> 00:32:55.519
evening breeze with that big ebb tide of sixteen foot.
584
00:32:55.720 --> 00:32:59.279
I got mountains out there, big green tide rip ways.
585
00:32:59.400 --> 00:33:02.359
I'm like, I can't do that. Probably stove in the
586
00:33:02.359 --> 00:33:05.799
windows and sink. I said, I'll run us across the
587
00:33:05.799 --> 00:33:08.279
port Neville, right across the channel, where I'll be three
588
00:33:08.359 --> 00:33:12.200
quartering on the waves like a big being on a waterbed.
589
00:33:12.279 --> 00:33:15.200
And you're a big person, so it's cushion. So as
590
00:33:15.200 --> 00:33:17.640
I'm going across, I grabbed my bag cell phone, and
591
00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:20.039
I phoned my dad and I'm holding the wheel PWK
592
00:33:20.160 --> 00:33:24.279
and I'm like, phone our uncle Adam, who's our family
593
00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:26.759
at the time when he was alive, our chief speaker,
594
00:33:26.920 --> 00:33:29.599
or what we call a hell. I said, phone Adam
595
00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:32.200
and ask him why the tune of hay. The sasquatch
596
00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:35.000
just keep picking on me, bugging me. Now they've chased
597
00:33:35.039 --> 00:33:37.160
me out of my camp. And all of a sudden,
598
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:38.920
I look at my sister, see why we're not there
599
00:33:39.000 --> 00:33:41.319
to say word. We're on the back of this wave
600
00:33:41.400 --> 00:33:44.559
and it's like fifteen feet down to the bottom. Her
601
00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:47.160
eyes go big. We come down with the big white
602
00:33:47.240 --> 00:33:50.039
spray windows are covered in water. I said, that's why
603
00:33:50.079 --> 00:33:52.160
we're not going to say word, because there four times
604
00:33:52.200 --> 00:33:55.519
bigger closer you get to that dock. So we got
605
00:33:55.519 --> 00:33:57.960
the Port Neville tied up to the government dock that
606
00:33:58.240 --> 00:34:01.839
was looked after by a older lady who is a
607
00:34:01.880 --> 00:34:05.519
devout Christian, good friend of mine, and she offered her
608
00:34:05.599 --> 00:34:08.840
daughter's bedroom as a teenager that wasn't there to my sister,
609
00:34:08.920 --> 00:34:10.920
and she would have no part of it. She stayed
610
00:34:10.920 --> 00:34:14.039
on the boat with us, sleeping on plywood decks with
611
00:34:14.199 --> 00:34:18.559
blankets that friend of mine gave us that night, and
612
00:34:18.639 --> 00:34:20.880
the next day, when the winds were down in the morning,
613
00:34:20.920 --> 00:34:23.599
we ran across the sayword. My sister jumped in the car,
614
00:34:23.760 --> 00:34:27.440
went home, and she's never gone camping again. I don't
615
00:34:27.480 --> 00:34:29.639
think she don't like the bush very much no more.
616
00:34:29.719 --> 00:34:34.960
She got scared by that sasquatch encounter that was very aggressive. Well,
617
00:34:34.960 --> 00:34:36.960
that day I phoned two of my buddies up and
618
00:34:37.159 --> 00:34:40.159
I said, get your guns. We're gonna drive up to
619
00:34:40.360 --> 00:34:44.000
my camp by the logging road. We're gonna go in there.
620
00:34:44.039 --> 00:34:46.639
We're gonna light it up with twelve gages and rifles,
621
00:34:46.679 --> 00:34:49.800
and I'm gonna be shaking my fist telling those Sasquatches,
622
00:34:49.920 --> 00:34:53.079
this is mine. You respect me now. I got my
623
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:56.800
cabins here. This is my little plot. So as we're
624
00:34:56.880 --> 00:35:00.239
driving up in the pickup truck, I'm drinking this milk
625
00:35:00.320 --> 00:35:03.400
jug of water. And as we're coming down the road
626
00:35:03.440 --> 00:35:05.960
about a mile from camp, up to the Loggin Road hill,
627
00:35:06.719 --> 00:35:09.639
the westerly winds coming from our left across the road
628
00:35:10.519 --> 00:35:14.159
twenty three older some of them are foot in diameter,
629
00:35:14.679 --> 00:35:19.639
have been pushed into the road into the wind. That
630
00:35:19.800 --> 00:35:23.719
wasn't natural. That was a message, we don't want me here.
631
00:35:24.119 --> 00:35:26.960
So I've got the old power saw out and walt
632
00:35:27.039 --> 00:35:30.960
my buddy. He's a logger, a faller by trade. So
633
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:33.440
him and I are swinging chainsaws and we cut our
634
00:35:33.440 --> 00:35:36.239
way through. We come down the hill and we get
635
00:35:36.280 --> 00:35:39.719
to the top of the trail head to my camp,
636
00:35:39.800 --> 00:35:42.400
and we still got another ten minute walk to go
637
00:35:43.159 --> 00:35:45.199
get out or walk, and all of a sudden, shit,
638
00:35:45.400 --> 00:35:47.800
go back to the truck, get the chainsaw. Cut the
639
00:35:47.840 --> 00:35:51.960
trees they've pushed over my trail head just below the
640
00:35:52.119 --> 00:35:54.440
hill that goes down called the Hill of Hell. It's
641
00:35:54.480 --> 00:35:56.320
a steep trail and we got a rope on it.
642
00:35:57.000 --> 00:35:58.840
So we dropped the chainsaws and we go down with
643
00:35:58.880 --> 00:36:01.079
our rifles. And as we get down into the camp
644
00:36:01.079 --> 00:36:04.480
where the cabins are, I start shooting. They start shooting
645
00:36:04.559 --> 00:36:06.760
up in the air, and that trees, I pull it
646
00:36:06.800 --> 00:36:09.639
out and start peeing all around my camp. That's why
647
00:36:09.679 --> 00:36:12.920
I was drinking the water and shaking my fists, going,
648
00:36:13.159 --> 00:36:16.280
I gonna stay here. You ain't scaring the autumn. A
649
00:36:16.320 --> 00:36:21.039
bushman ain't afraid of nothing, especially big hairy buggers. Been
650
00:36:21.039 --> 00:36:24.519
a piece with them ever since. They even came into
651
00:36:25.079 --> 00:36:28.360
just past one of my cabins four years ago in
652
00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:31.760
a cold winter outflow and it was freezing conditions, and
653
00:36:31.800 --> 00:36:36.679
in the rock crevices and overhangs they put wood, driftwood
654
00:36:36.679 --> 00:36:40.599
and broken hemlock trees. They put it up to break
655
00:36:40.639 --> 00:36:43.880
the cold wind while they were sleeping there. So that's
656
00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:47.000
showing you that me and the local clan have harmony
657
00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:50.679
and balance. And that's the way humans and sasquatch, which
658
00:36:50.679 --> 00:36:53.639
are humans of the night, they're just the Adam and
659
00:36:53.719 --> 00:36:56.519
eve human of we Indians. That's where we come from.
660
00:36:57.039 --> 00:36:59.719
But we've always lived in harmony and balance. And that's
661
00:36:59.719 --> 00:37:02.719
why all Indian tribes in North America say, don't ever
662
00:37:02.800 --> 00:37:07.000
disrespect a sasquatch, don't ever think of harming them, hunting them,
663
00:37:07.039 --> 00:37:09.719
trapping me. And if they throw something at you, it's
664
00:37:09.760 --> 00:37:11.800
just telling you to turn around and go back where
665
00:37:11.840 --> 00:37:14.519
you came from, and don't tree knock, because that's a
666
00:37:14.559 --> 00:37:18.440
sasquat for it is just coming to stop, turn around,
667
00:37:18.679 --> 00:37:20.679
go back where you go come from. Me and my
668
00:37:20.760 --> 00:37:22.519
family are up here and we don't want you here.
669
00:37:23.039 --> 00:37:27.000
And then you got these speculating call them what they are,
670
00:37:27.280 --> 00:37:30.679
ignorant people that are banging on trees. This is my
671
00:37:31.039 --> 00:37:33.679
tree knocker, made by so and so out of the
672
00:37:33.679 --> 00:37:37.679
best hickory from Kentucky. Bang bang, bang bang. How would
673
00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:40.280
you like it if an Indian walked in your house,
674
00:37:41.119 --> 00:37:43.239
don't kick the door and banged on the wall and
675
00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:47.559
told you by banging stop, turn around, get out of here,
676
00:37:47.599 --> 00:37:50.480
go back where you came from. That's your home. That's
677
00:37:50.480 --> 00:37:53.639
one of the most disrespectful things for someone to do
678
00:37:53.679 --> 00:37:56.039
to you, because more likely you pull out your nine
679
00:37:56.199 --> 00:37:59.559
millimeter clock or like me, at twelve gates and cut
680
00:37:59.559 --> 00:38:02.000
them in half because it's kicked in your door and
681
00:38:02.039 --> 00:38:05.760
we're demanding you leave. And that's why we never tree knock.
682
00:38:06.039 --> 00:38:08.159
And I won't allow any of my team members to
683
00:38:08.199 --> 00:38:12.079
tree up. Well, vocalize well, whistle, well, we'll play music,
684
00:38:12.760 --> 00:38:16.480
Peggy will put on her fancy shoes that flashed with
685
00:38:16.639 --> 00:38:19.760
lights all around it. You know, we try things like that,
686
00:38:19.840 --> 00:38:23.039
but respectfully, but we will never ever tree up.
687
00:38:25.000 --> 00:38:29.440
Do you feel that by your showing of like I'm
688
00:38:29.480 --> 00:38:33.119
not backing down. No, I don't say aggression, but that
689
00:38:33.199 --> 00:38:36.440
they respected you because instead of running away, you're like,
690
00:38:36.719 --> 00:38:40.159
this is mine, you know, I'm here to live with you.
691
00:38:41.039 --> 00:38:43.199
Was there a form of respect? Do you think that
692
00:38:43.239 --> 00:38:48.639
they respected that? Okay, you know, we'll leave you stay here.
693
00:38:48.679 --> 00:38:50.119
You know at first they're like, let's see if we
694
00:38:50.119 --> 00:38:52.320
can scare you off, but you're like, no, I'm not.
695
00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:55.320
Do you think that that you were given some respect
696
00:38:55.400 --> 00:38:56.039
by them?
697
00:38:56.440 --> 00:38:59.519
Absolutely? Well. I remember when I first put my twenty
698
00:38:59.559 --> 00:39:02.599
six foot trailer and built a ten by ten edition
699
00:39:02.760 --> 00:39:06.320
on it on my Ancestral island to be the native watchman.
700
00:39:06.360 --> 00:39:08.400
I think it was eighty eight or eighty nine. You know,
701
00:39:08.440 --> 00:39:10.480
it was just the young punt. And you know, a
702
00:39:10.599 --> 00:39:13.239
year later, I'm there about myself. And you know, I'm
703
00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:15.880
not afraid of anything because I'm ignorant and stupid. I
704
00:39:15.880 --> 00:39:19.039
don't know there's Boogeyman's out there in the forest. And
705
00:39:19.159 --> 00:39:21.400
I got twelve gays in the thirty thirty what sort
706
00:39:21.440 --> 00:39:23.719
of worry about. So I'm lying in bed reading a
707
00:39:23.880 --> 00:39:29.480
Louis Lamour book after dark and by candlelight, and I
708
00:39:29.559 --> 00:39:32.679
can hear the deer in the wild plum trees because
709
00:39:32.679 --> 00:39:34.920
it used to be a homestead in early nineteen hundreds,
710
00:39:34.960 --> 00:39:38.119
early late eighteen hundreds by two people called the Owens.
711
00:39:38.159 --> 00:39:41.480
There's a couple. So anyway, I'm listening to these deer
712
00:39:41.519 --> 00:39:48.760
eating plum leaves and plums because it's late September, early October,
713
00:39:49.400 --> 00:39:55.559
and all of a sudden I hear this up the
714
00:39:55.639 --> 00:39:58.760
Canoe Pass channel on Turner Island, and I'm like, got
715
00:39:58.760 --> 00:40:01.719
my attention now. That was wolves. And then all of
716
00:40:01.719 --> 00:40:04.480
a sudden, over on Harbledown Island, where the abandoned native
717
00:40:04.840 --> 00:40:07.119
village was at that time, about a mile and a
718
00:40:07.119 --> 00:40:13.480
bit away, a long drawing out howls and probably two
719
00:40:13.519 --> 00:40:16.000
or three of them, and I'm just like, oh Jesus,
720
00:40:16.159 --> 00:40:20.079
they're here. The sast squatches and then all of a sudden,
721
00:40:20.119 --> 00:40:24.119
another one howls from another island, and I got these
722
00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:28.599
vocalizations going on, and it gets quiet a bit, and
723
00:40:28.679 --> 00:40:37.320
all of a sudden, plumb eating deer. Yeah, I'm just
724
00:40:37.440 --> 00:40:41.360
big boom and male sasquatch yelling right behind my trailer,
725
00:40:41.960 --> 00:40:44.639
and I'm just pulling my blanket up, pulled my guns
726
00:40:44.639 --> 00:40:47.519
towards me, and I'm just like Jesus, big hairy arm
727
00:40:47.599 --> 00:40:49.480
is gonna come to that window and grab me. What
728
00:40:49.519 --> 00:40:51.719
the hell am I gonna do? My heart's pounding, my
729
00:40:51.800 --> 00:40:55.679
throat's getting dry, I'm terrified. And all of a sudden,
730
00:40:55.719 --> 00:40:57.960
the howling erupts the game, and the one behind my
731
00:40:58.039 --> 00:41:05.280
trailer he roars too, And that's when I thought, Okay,
732
00:41:05.559 --> 00:41:08.519
gotta do something. So I leaned out him at bed
733
00:41:08.559 --> 00:41:12.639
and I banged the wall bang can't you hear him
734
00:41:12.719 --> 00:41:18.639
sleeping here? And I walked away and he never howled
735
00:41:18.679 --> 00:41:22.519
the game. And that's when I thought, it's that easy.
736
00:41:23.199 --> 00:41:25.559
You get that scared of sasquatch. That's all you got
737
00:41:25.559 --> 00:41:29.880
to do is acknowledge you're there, and can't you hear
738
00:41:29.960 --> 00:41:32.920
him sleeping here? Of course you didn't understand English. I
739
00:41:32.960 --> 00:41:35.039
don't imagine but I think he got the message real
740
00:41:35.079 --> 00:41:40.880
clear clear. His vocalizations disrespected me and as I've been
741
00:41:40.880 --> 00:41:44.400
taught by numerous shamans and others of the Indian tribes
742
00:41:44.440 --> 00:41:49.920
throughout Sasquatch Island that I've interacted and studied with, Sasquatches
743
00:41:50.000 --> 00:41:53.599
have laws, very strict laws, and the biggest one is
744
00:41:53.679 --> 00:41:57.440
respect amongst themselves. That's why when we look at the
745
00:41:57.519 --> 00:42:03.199
pictographs times too from the peoples, we can see bows
746
00:42:03.239 --> 00:42:07.159
and arrows and spears being used a big, tall, hairy
747
00:42:07.199 --> 00:42:12.159
looking Sasquatch critters. But in all of the accounts that
748
00:42:12.199 --> 00:42:18.039
have been written in newspapers and magazines, the internet, now, podcast, videocast,
749
00:42:18.559 --> 00:42:24.360
in person, there's not one account talking about Sasquatches fighting
750
00:42:25.039 --> 00:42:29.800
clan to clan tried to try and that's what Sasquatch
751
00:42:29.800 --> 00:42:34.880
shamanism is. So when we learn about Sasquatch in a
752
00:42:34.920 --> 00:42:38.320
higher level than most like I have and still am doing,
753
00:42:39.079 --> 00:42:42.320
we learn that they're very respectful, they have very strict laws.
754
00:42:42.840 --> 00:42:46.840
They don't allow fire, they don't have tools to a
755
00:42:46.880 --> 00:42:51.639
big extent, they don't have weapons which evolved from tool use.
756
00:42:52.119 --> 00:42:57.639
They don't have clothing, semi permanent shelter, and Because of that,
757
00:42:57.679 --> 00:43:00.880
they're in harmony and balance with the animal kingdom. From
758
00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:04.880
what Akakame, the creator God gave us, there is no
759
00:43:05.519 --> 00:43:12.119
clear cutting, fracking, urban sprawl destroying the marine resources and
760
00:43:12.440 --> 00:43:16.920
fresh water salmon and other resources. Sasquatches are in harmony
761
00:43:16.960 --> 00:43:21.199
and balance. And the biggest one is because an ancestor
762
00:43:21.239 --> 00:43:25.199
of the Sasquatches, probably numerous, took a rock and clicked
763
00:43:25.199 --> 00:43:28.079
it together to up stick and rubbed it and made
764
00:43:28.079 --> 00:43:32.599
it smart and got fired. The wife says, oh, honey,
765
00:43:32.599 --> 00:43:35.079
that's good. Now I can cook your meat and your fish.
766
00:43:35.159 --> 00:43:38.239
I'd like to work for that fire and be in
767
00:43:38.320 --> 00:43:41.159
an hour or a few days or a few weeks. Later,
768
00:43:41.320 --> 00:43:46.400
the klan lead comes over, the hell you doing? You know,
769
00:43:46.519 --> 00:43:49.559
we have laws, very strict laws. We do not use
770
00:43:49.639 --> 00:43:54.679
fire and put it out. Don't even do that. Next,
771
00:43:54.840 --> 00:43:57.199
you know, the female Sasquatch, he's like, are you gonna
772
00:43:57.239 --> 00:44:01.880
take that crap from that big harry buker? Nanna, why
773
00:44:01.880 --> 00:44:04.079
don't we just leave this tribe and go use fire?
774
00:44:04.119 --> 00:44:07.880
And okay, whatever you say, dear, And next you know
775
00:44:07.880 --> 00:44:11.920
they using fire, and now they want to prepare their
776
00:44:11.920 --> 00:44:14.480
fish different ways and their meat, so they got tools
777
00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:16.719
they've made from rocks because they're breaking the law, and
778
00:44:16.760 --> 00:44:19.920
as will break all the laws. And pretty soon they're
779
00:44:20.599 --> 00:44:23.960
oh cold, Maybe we better build an earthhouse, but make
780
00:44:24.000 --> 00:44:27.599
it really weather proof and heat for canning because we
781
00:44:27.719 --> 00:44:31.159
got fire. And all of a sudden they lose their
782
00:44:31.199 --> 00:44:34.480
start to lose their hair, and it's like, what do
783
00:44:34.559 --> 00:44:36.239
you mean you want me to go hunting an animal?
784
00:44:36.239 --> 00:44:38.719
It's dark, it's nice and warm in here. It's cold
785
00:44:38.760 --> 00:44:40.440
out there, colder than the day a waun till the
786
00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:43.199
sun comes up. Shut up, go to sleep, and pretty
787
00:44:43.199 --> 00:44:46.480
soon they lose their ability to have nocturnal vision, and
788
00:44:46.559 --> 00:44:49.440
pretty soon the neighboring tribe who's done the same. An
789
00:44:49.440 --> 00:44:53.039
evolution of hundreds generations have progressed them to a point
790
00:44:53.039 --> 00:44:55.760
of being smaller because they no longer have to chase animals,
791
00:44:56.000 --> 00:44:59.280
because they've got apploles and spears and bows and arrows
792
00:44:59.320 --> 00:45:04.920
and traps nets tool use, they can make all these things. Well,
793
00:45:04.960 --> 00:45:11.239
now capitalism, greed, envy, hate, slavery kicks in, and now
794
00:45:11.280 --> 00:45:14.880
we've got the North American Indians, the indigenous people fighting
795
00:45:14.880 --> 00:45:18.639
amongst themselves, fighting within their own tribe, and every time
796
00:45:18.639 --> 00:45:21.480
they go to their harvest area and their sasquatches digging
797
00:45:21.519 --> 00:45:24.519
their shellfish or picking their berries or their fishing station.
798
00:45:25.039 --> 00:45:29.159
Outcome the atlos, the spears, the clubs, the bows and arrows,
799
00:45:29.639 --> 00:45:33.920
and the sasquatch has learned that we're the superior species
800
00:45:33.920 --> 00:45:37.400
of the bipedal humanoid. We know that, but because we
801
00:45:37.440 --> 00:45:40.280
have laws, very strict laws, we can't compete with them.
802
00:45:40.320 --> 00:45:44.360
So we have to become less dependent upon daytime harvest
803
00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:48.440
and hunting and progress, and evolve with better nocturnal vision
804
00:45:49.039 --> 00:45:52.000
and become the humans of the night. And that's why
805
00:45:52.079 --> 00:45:55.280
right now people go, how can we never see Sasquatch?
806
00:45:55.320 --> 00:45:58.199
Because I manage the largest Sasquatch store in museum in
807
00:45:58.239 --> 00:46:02.840
North America called Sasquatch Legend two blocks behind me in Forks, Washington,
808
00:46:03.320 --> 00:46:07.119
and I get all these Americans coming in mainly, and
809
00:46:07.159 --> 00:46:09.920
they're like looking around, see Big Year, eight and a
810
00:46:09.920 --> 00:46:12.519
half foot mannequins, see all my native art and other
811
00:46:12.719 --> 00:46:15.760
sasquatch stuff we have, and of course our twilight corner,
812
00:46:16.000 --> 00:46:19.079
because it is Forks, Washington where twilight comes from the
813
00:46:19.119 --> 00:46:21.840
Five Books. But anyway, they go, how can we never
814
00:46:21.880 --> 00:46:24.119
find sasquatch? And I said, well, instead of lying in
815
00:46:24.199 --> 00:46:26.519
bed snoring and Farton. Maybe you should be doing what
816
00:46:26.639 --> 00:46:29.039
we do and be out at night, because that's when
817
00:46:29.039 --> 00:46:32.360
you'll see here smell sasquatch and hopefully light them up
818
00:46:32.400 --> 00:46:35.760
with flurs and record them like I've done before. Oh
819
00:46:36.079 --> 00:46:39.039
you mean there's more than one? And that's when I think,
820
00:46:39.079 --> 00:46:42.000
God Almighty, the hairless pie peetle is the dumbest critter
821
00:46:42.039 --> 00:46:44.320
on this planet. Of course, there's more than one. You
822
00:46:44.400 --> 00:46:47.480
gotta have thousands to keep a species going, because that's
823
00:46:47.679 --> 00:46:51.880
aka geta made the creator God's plan. And you know,
824
00:46:51.880 --> 00:46:56.280
you just looked at these plays donut dumb human faces, ooh,
825
00:46:56.760 --> 00:46:59.960
you've really got any They just have no clue of comfort.
826
00:47:00.719 --> 00:47:03.360
But then you get the ones who have listen to
827
00:47:03.480 --> 00:47:06.320
podcasts like you and many others make and done their
828
00:47:06.719 --> 00:47:10.400
research by reading books and internet and following Facebook groups,
829
00:47:11.199 --> 00:47:13.599
and I just love it. They're so inquisitive, they have
830
00:47:13.639 --> 00:47:16.559
so many questions. And then of course it's always the
831
00:47:16.639 --> 00:47:19.199
odd one comes in. Oh my God, you're the guy.
832
00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:20.280
It's you.
833
00:47:20.679 --> 00:47:22.719
I came all the way from Connecticut, I was coming
834
00:47:22.760 --> 00:47:24.480
to Seattle. I knew have to come here so I
835
00:47:24.519 --> 00:47:26.079
can come see you and buy one of your t
836
00:47:26.199 --> 00:47:28.800
shirts and one of your Native designs and you know,
837
00:47:29.360 --> 00:47:31.880
can I get an autographed please? And a picture with you?
838
00:47:31.920 --> 00:47:33.079
And it's so humbling, you know.
839
00:47:33.119 --> 00:47:35.199
I just like when they want my picture, Okay, I
840
00:47:35.199 --> 00:47:37.599
get a picture of them, like, oh absolutely. But we
841
00:47:37.719 --> 00:47:40.320
got to go to Biggie the Mannequin because he's my brand.
842
00:47:40.880 --> 00:47:43.639
And I've done hundreds of pictures with people and made
843
00:47:43.719 --> 00:47:46.280
their name, made their vacation. And that's what it's all
844
00:47:46.320 --> 00:47:50.280
about to be in the Sasquatch industry as a performer
845
00:47:50.360 --> 00:47:55.519
in conferences, television, movies, podcast, video casts. Call us what
846
00:47:55.679 --> 00:47:58.519
we are, you know, the mainstream ones. You know, we
847
00:47:58.639 --> 00:48:01.719
are Sasquatch celebrity. It's not fat head or ego. It's
848
00:48:01.760 --> 00:48:04.039
just who and what we are and how we're sort
849
00:48:04.039 --> 00:48:06.960
of looked at by other people that are really avid
850
00:48:07.039 --> 00:48:11.719
Sasquatch enthusiasts. And we have a role. Number one, learn
851
00:48:11.760 --> 00:48:15.599
from sasquatch and be respectful and pass that respect onto
852
00:48:15.639 --> 00:48:18.119
the people that come to you and oh can I
853
00:48:18.159 --> 00:48:21.559
buy your book? Oh can I ask me questions? You
854
00:48:21.679 --> 00:48:26.280
be courteous, You be take the time to make time
855
00:48:26.360 --> 00:48:30.599
for them because here in Forts, Washington, they've journeyed a
856
00:48:30.599 --> 00:48:33.280
long way to come here, and you know, you could
857
00:48:33.320 --> 00:48:36.199
only wish that Bella and Jacob and Edward were here
858
00:48:36.239 --> 00:48:39.000
to do the same as I'm doing, you know in
859
00:48:39.400 --> 00:48:43.519
Sasquatch legend, because we'd probably have no room in our
860
00:48:43.519 --> 00:48:46.079
hotels year round, you know. And it's and that's what
861
00:48:46.119 --> 00:48:48.599
I'm doing. I'm building an industry for others, so that
862
00:48:49.760 --> 00:48:53.079
what I did with grizzly bear tours by boat, whale
863
00:48:53.119 --> 00:48:59.079
watching by boat, sea kayaking, eco cultural, indigenous culture incorporated
864
00:48:59.159 --> 00:49:02.960
into regional draws of grizzly bears, whale watching, sea kayaking,
865
00:49:03.039 --> 00:49:06.519
sports fishing. Now the Indians of British Columbia because I
866
00:49:06.559 --> 00:49:09.960
was ahead of the Indian Tourism Association for many years
867
00:49:10.000 --> 00:49:14.280
and help build the Indian participation and the tourist businesses.
868
00:49:14.760 --> 00:49:17.199
Now many of them are booming, and I want to
869
00:49:17.199 --> 00:49:19.960
see the same happen to others that I meet that
870
00:49:20.119 --> 00:49:23.199
are Oh. I really wish I could come to Forks,
871
00:49:23.280 --> 00:49:26.079
but I haven't been able to find a job, And
872
00:49:26.199 --> 00:49:29.199
as much as I can, I go investigating still, And
873
00:49:29.400 --> 00:49:31.239
when I do get there, I'll show you the casts
874
00:49:31.320 --> 00:49:34.039
I have and I'll talk to you about the evidence
875
00:49:34.119 --> 00:49:38.199
I've gathered in my perspectives from my forty years of
876
00:49:38.360 --> 00:49:41.880
investigating Sasquatch. I'd like them to be able to get
877
00:49:41.880 --> 00:49:43.760
to a level where they can do like me and
878
00:49:43.800 --> 00:49:48.719
say this show up, I charge to fifty a vehicle load.
879
00:49:48.840 --> 00:49:50.440
As long as I got enough room for me and
880
00:49:50.519 --> 00:49:54.639
my flurs and my trail cameras a couple of them,
881
00:49:54.760 --> 00:49:58.119
and my binoclars and my P one thousand nikon, I'll
882
00:49:58.159 --> 00:50:01.360
bring you out investigating day and to the night. And
883
00:50:01.559 --> 00:50:03.880
you know, if I can do that for others, to
884
00:50:04.039 --> 00:50:06.679
make that two hundred and fifty a day or more
885
00:50:07.360 --> 00:50:10.719
by the building this Sasquatch industry with others that are
886
00:50:10.760 --> 00:50:14.880
doing expeditions and tours and speaking engagements and so forth,
887
00:50:15.440 --> 00:50:18.119
then when I do die, I've done my due diligence
888
00:50:18.199 --> 00:50:21.840
as someone who coined I am the Sasquatch Shama, and
889
00:50:22.280 --> 00:50:25.119
that's what it's all about. Something I've learned from Sasquatch
890
00:50:25.199 --> 00:50:28.760
is be very respectful and in all honesty. There was
891
00:50:28.840 --> 00:50:31.880
a time back in the early nineties when this retired
892
00:50:32.000 --> 00:50:38.199
US Marine Corps major bronze star winner billionaire took me
893
00:50:38.320 --> 00:50:42.840
under his wing and said, you're an unethical sob, and
894
00:50:42.920 --> 00:50:46.519
he browed me me. He ran me through thrill Camp,
895
00:50:46.679 --> 00:50:49.880
boot camp and a few years later he comes staggering
896
00:50:49.920 --> 00:50:52.519
out of the bedroom because they're drinking some scotch one night,
897
00:50:52.599 --> 00:50:57.760
and he had this silk whiskey silk tassel A's white
898
00:50:57.920 --> 00:51:01.599
and he made me a cardboard graduate hat and he's
899
00:51:01.880 --> 00:51:05.159
crossed it with felt penny put you have graduated from
900
00:51:05.199 --> 00:51:11.880
the University of Hard Knocks, Roger Layton. And he said
901
00:51:11.880 --> 00:51:14.880
to me that night, yeah, I was never going to
902
00:51:14.920 --> 00:51:17.000
give up on you, but it took me a few years,
903
00:51:17.159 --> 00:51:20.320
but now you understand what ethics and integrity are. And
904
00:51:20.360 --> 00:51:23.599
it really resonated with me. And then as I turned sixty,
905
00:51:23.639 --> 00:51:26.119
it resonated even more when I said, oh my god,
906
00:51:26.159 --> 00:51:29.559
I'm an elder though, and even though technically I was
907
00:51:29.559 --> 00:51:32.280
an elder at fifty five, because that's how we indigenous
908
00:51:32.360 --> 00:51:36.119
native people look at our old long and the tooth wrinkled,
909
00:51:36.159 --> 00:51:41.400
white haired, no haired people. So learning from Sasquatch that
910
00:51:42.119 --> 00:51:47.159
their oral history goes back one hundred plus years. Because
911
00:51:47.159 --> 00:51:50.400
when I was in an Indian reserve studying with an
912
00:51:50.440 --> 00:51:54.119
Omaha shaman, after a few days of studying with her,
913
00:51:54.400 --> 00:51:57.920
I asked her how old is se Ganga? Keep her
914
00:51:57.920 --> 00:52:03.239
in the medicine Sasquatch kit oh hundred and thirties average,
915
00:52:03.440 --> 00:52:05.679
some of them one hundred and thirty, one hundred and fifty,
916
00:52:06.119 --> 00:52:08.079
and then a few of them that are gray and
917
00:52:08.119 --> 00:52:10.000
white will get up to one hundred and eighty to
918
00:52:10.199 --> 00:52:12.760
just into the two hundreds. And I'm like, how do
919
00:52:12.840 --> 00:52:17.800
they get so old? Upside my head seems flash of
920
00:52:17.840 --> 00:52:21.840
white stars, And like, what do you do that for? You?
921
00:52:22.039 --> 00:52:25.320
Listening to me? How many days I've been teaching? You see,
922
00:52:25.440 --> 00:52:29.639
Tonga keeper of the medicine we shoe in some of
923
00:52:29.719 --> 00:52:33.960
us and others and most in the old days used
924
00:52:34.000 --> 00:52:38.960
to disappear for months, years on end, and they would
925
00:52:38.960 --> 00:52:43.039
go have their interaction with the local Sasquatches of their
926
00:52:43.039 --> 00:52:47.880
tribal territories. And after a long time, when the Sasquatches
927
00:52:47.960 --> 00:52:51.280
came to them, they would communicate back and forth in
928
00:52:51.320 --> 00:52:56.719
the tribal language or turn jargon, which every tribe new
929
00:52:56.719 --> 00:53:01.000
in North America prior to contact, and just afterwards, and
930
00:53:01.039 --> 00:53:03.840
they would learn the medicinal remedies from the Sasquatch and
931
00:53:03.920 --> 00:53:09.119
poultices and edible plants and so forth. So Sasquatches get
932
00:53:09.159 --> 00:53:12.639
old because they have forgotten more about their local remedies
933
00:53:12.679 --> 00:53:15.679
and medicines than we will ever know. And that was
934
00:53:15.719 --> 00:53:19.639
so poignant. Here I learned from a shaman, a major
935
00:53:19.719 --> 00:53:23.679
point of Sasquat shamanism that their oral history, if that's
936
00:53:23.719 --> 00:53:26.719
how old they get, goes back to the Civil War
937
00:53:26.800 --> 00:53:29.960
and maybe a little beyond with the oldest ones that
938
00:53:30.000 --> 00:53:34.360
have planned, and that's all across North America. That's huge.
939
00:53:34.719 --> 00:53:38.000
So when they're sitting there talking, passing the knowledge through
940
00:53:38.000 --> 00:53:40.679
my language what we call nousta to tell a story.
941
00:53:41.159 --> 00:53:43.679
When they're passing that story on to their clan, the
942
00:53:43.719 --> 00:53:49.239
younger ones, they're telling them about the Plains of Abraham
943
00:53:49.480 --> 00:53:52.159
War that took place in eastern Canada and the US.
944
00:53:52.280 --> 00:53:55.039
Actually the War of eighteen twelve, the first time the
945
00:53:55.159 --> 00:53:58.320
US ever got their butts handed to them in their
946
00:53:58.360 --> 00:54:01.800
own dirt, and by the Canadians go figured it out.
947
00:54:02.360 --> 00:54:08.119
And then the Red River Rebellion of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Canada,
948
00:54:08.360 --> 00:54:13.159
the Mayti and Indian tribe uprising wounded me in the
949
00:54:13.280 --> 00:54:17.840
United States, and the list goes on of the Trail
950
00:54:17.920 --> 00:54:21.679
of Tears where the US cavalry forced march Indians from
951
00:54:21.679 --> 00:54:27.320
their traditional homelands across thousands miles plus and thousands died
952
00:54:27.400 --> 00:54:30.480
on that Trail of Tears and they were forced into
953
00:54:30.599 --> 00:54:34.360
exile outside of where they came from. And to this day,
954
00:54:34.400 --> 00:54:37.840
those tribes are living in states they ancestors never lived.
955
00:54:38.599 --> 00:54:42.800
So they talk about that in the Civil War. Can
956
00:54:42.840 --> 00:54:45.760
you imagine like everyone takes for granted. Oh, sasquatch the
957
00:54:45.880 --> 00:54:50.039
watcher you watch Finding Bigfoot? You see am I don't
958
00:54:50.039 --> 00:54:51.920
think I would want to call it ai Back then
959
00:54:52.000 --> 00:54:53.880
it was some kind of special effects. But it's a
960
00:54:53.880 --> 00:54:56.920
sasquatch looking in the window of a trailer, that single
961
00:54:56.920 --> 00:55:01.599
wide trailer someone watching TV. That's the report the encounter reenacted.
962
00:55:02.400 --> 00:55:04.559
But Sasquatchers are always doing that.
963
00:55:05.480 --> 00:55:05.559
Me.
964
00:55:05.800 --> 00:55:10.119
I still can think about eating fruit loops, probably grade
965
00:55:10.119 --> 00:55:14.800
two and waiting for my JP Patches cartoon clown funny
966
00:55:14.800 --> 00:55:18.159
man show to come on Washington State Network that was
967
00:55:18.239 --> 00:55:21.559
aired in Canada. But I had to watch Walter Cronkite
968
00:55:22.039 --> 00:55:25.039
newscast between six and seven and what was the last
969
00:55:25.039 --> 00:55:29.079
part of Walter Kronkite's morning show showing what's taking place
970
00:55:29.320 --> 00:55:34.000
the last few months in Vietnam the carnage, thousands of
971
00:55:34.320 --> 00:55:38.920
brass casings, corn out of helicopter machine guns, helicopters lifting
972
00:55:38.960 --> 00:55:41.840
off a building and people hanging on to the rungs
973
00:55:42.440 --> 00:55:45.719
and body bags blowing in the rotor wash of helicopters
974
00:55:45.719 --> 00:55:49.239
as they lifted off. That sticks with me. Can you
975
00:55:49.280 --> 00:55:52.000
imagine what it's like for a sasquatch looking and see that?
976
00:55:52.719 --> 00:55:57.599
And what do you call it? All the horror shows
977
00:55:57.639 --> 00:56:05.079
we watched, crime, War, Murderer, hanging ghost, gooey stories, ripping
978
00:56:05.159 --> 00:56:10.280
heads and entrails out, and then the sasquatch's oral history
979
00:56:10.320 --> 00:56:16.480
talks about how they contracted smallpox, influenza, tuberculosis, Spanish flu
980
00:56:16.960 --> 00:56:21.840
generalties disease from the hairless ones, especially the newcomers that
981
00:56:21.920 --> 00:56:24.719
came and passed it onto the hairless Indians as well.
982
00:56:25.559 --> 00:56:31.800
And then you have the sasquatch looking out and seeing
983
00:56:31.840 --> 00:56:36.760
the clear cut logging, the pulp mills pumping out smoke,
984
00:56:37.000 --> 00:56:41.400
and refineries and effluent pouring into rivers and fish rivers
985
00:56:41.400 --> 00:56:43.880
and streams that you once walked across the back the
986
00:56:44.000 --> 00:56:47.199
fish are devoid of fish or just a few returning,
987
00:56:47.920 --> 00:56:51.000
and everything that we as the hairless bite people, the
988
00:56:51.079 --> 00:56:54.119
inferior human of the planet, has done and is doing.
989
00:56:55.320 --> 00:56:57.519
No wonder why fash watch doesn't come out of the
990
00:56:57.559 --> 00:57:00.039
floor because then fit with us at our campfires and
991
00:57:00.239 --> 00:57:05.920
ask for s'more because they hate us, despise us, loathe us,
992
00:57:05.920 --> 00:57:09.039
but most of all, they fear us. They know that
993
00:57:09.119 --> 00:57:14.840
because our their distant ancestor, the Sasquatch, bang rocked together
994
00:57:14.880 --> 00:57:18.639
for sparks or rub stick, and they evolve to be
995
00:57:18.719 --> 00:57:21.920
what we are. And it happened with the Neanderthals in
996
00:57:21.960 --> 00:57:27.280
Europe and Asia, the Yawi's in Australia, the Yeti's and Asia,
997
00:57:27.400 --> 00:57:32.840
and the YearIn in China, the Ubagan or whatever they
998
00:57:32.920 --> 00:57:37.639
call northern Japan. We all six continents have our Sasquatches,
999
00:57:37.719 --> 00:57:41.440
that we evolve to become the hairless by beetle, the
1000
00:57:41.480 --> 00:57:45.679
inferior humanoid of the planet, and that sasquatch shamans. We
1001
00:57:45.800 --> 00:57:49.079
got to learn from them and progress back to not
1002
00:57:49.199 --> 00:57:52.880
so much an instinctual level of existence, but we need
1003
00:57:52.920 --> 00:57:56.079
to learn from them that maybe we shouldn't war, maybe
1004
00:57:56.159 --> 00:57:59.840
we should vote out our leaders like Trump and Putin
1005
00:58:00.000 --> 00:58:04.599
and the heads of the nuclear countries like not in
1006
00:58:04.679 --> 00:58:08.519
Yahoo and because they got their fingers over buttons ready
1007
00:58:08.519 --> 00:58:12.920
to put them to eradicate us, because some damn ancestor
1008
00:58:13.079 --> 00:58:17.320
wanted fire, and fire would progress to nuclear fusion or fission,
1009
00:58:17.400 --> 00:58:19.960
whatever they call it. I'm no scientists, and I'd have
1010
00:58:20.039 --> 00:58:23.000
no capital d small our period before my name, I
1011
00:58:23.159 --> 00:58:29.039
just the regular engine and bushmen. But out of that,
1012
00:58:29.400 --> 00:58:31.880
I've learned so much from Sasquatch and the people that
1013
00:58:32.079 --> 00:58:35.039
have learned from Sasquatch and from oral history of the
1014
00:58:35.119 --> 00:58:38.239
tribes and others. You know, I've latch from. You know,
1015
00:58:39.199 --> 00:58:43.239
some of the non native people that investigate Sasquatch, I
1016
00:58:43.239 --> 00:58:46.480
communicate with them, but it's maybe the main native ones
1017
00:58:46.519 --> 00:58:48.599
that I really learned a lot because you asked those
1018
00:58:48.679 --> 00:58:52.719
indet questions. You know, did your and did your relatives
1019
00:58:52.719 --> 00:58:57.599
ever speakable at Sasquatch getting smallpox, influenza tuberculosis when our
1020
00:58:57.719 --> 00:59:02.960
tribes got it? Did your elders ever tell you about
1021
00:59:03.440 --> 00:59:07.880
warfare between your tribe and the Sasquatch? Was there ever
1022
00:59:08.159 --> 00:59:12.519
talk and battle and war the conflict between the Sasquatch clans.
1023
00:59:12.760 --> 00:59:15.360
So when you ask those really in depth questions, as
1024
00:59:15.400 --> 00:59:19.000
well as what is the secret seasonal migrant to migrant
1025
00:59:19.000 --> 00:59:23.400
tape migration pattern of the Sasquatches that you share your
1026
00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:26.760
traditional territories, and they tell me, oh, just like us
1027
00:59:26.840 --> 00:59:30.119
clams over here for winter, there for herring, and march
1028
00:59:30.599 --> 00:59:34.480
over here in april for uligan smell over here for seaweed,
1029
00:59:34.519 --> 00:59:37.719
and big low tides over here for salmon traps over
1030
00:59:37.760 --> 00:59:39.920
here for salmon and the rivers. Then back to the
1031
00:59:39.960 --> 00:59:43.400
shelf to speak, for all winter early spring. The Sasquatches
1032
00:59:43.400 --> 00:59:46.119
were doing the same. That's why when we harvested clams,
1033
00:59:46.119 --> 00:59:49.760
we never went to that bay. That was the bay
1034
00:59:49.880 --> 00:59:53.599
that the Sasquatch clans lived in, and that way there
1035
00:59:53.719 --> 00:59:57.480
was no conflict between the hairless one Indian tribe and
1036
00:59:57.519 --> 01:00:00.880
the hairy members of the other tribe. And that's what
1037
01:00:00.960 --> 01:00:03.639
we have to learn from Sasquatch. We have to get
1038
01:00:03.679 --> 01:00:07.239
back to that level of equilibrium. We need to tumble
1039
01:00:07.320 --> 01:00:09.360
that balance back to harmony and balance.
1040
01:00:10.320 --> 01:00:13.039
Wow, that's amazing, Thomas. This has been fascinating.
1041
01:00:14.000 --> 01:00:16.559
Now I have a couple more questions before we wrap
1042
01:00:16.599 --> 01:00:20.679
this up here, are you well, I'll get to that
1043
01:00:20.719 --> 01:00:21.199
one later.
1044
01:00:21.320 --> 01:00:25.039
But so, I I've heard.
1045
01:00:24.840 --> 01:00:28.119
Many times sasquatch running up to and so you're talking
1046
01:00:28.119 --> 01:00:31.920
about like banging on like tree knocks, But there is
1047
01:00:33.360 --> 01:00:37.199
some Sasquatch who slack houses. They'll run up to the house,
1048
01:00:37.800 --> 01:00:41.079
give it an old slap. I have a I have
1049
01:00:41.239 --> 01:00:45.400
a theory of what that is, and I'm gonna run
1050
01:00:45.400 --> 01:00:47.320
this by you, and I'd love to hear your thoughts
1051
01:00:47.400 --> 01:00:50.360
on it. I think it is a form of counting coup,
1052
01:00:51.079 --> 01:00:54.679
where it's trying to up your enemy. You know, it's
1053
01:00:54.679 --> 01:00:57.559
trying to show that you're the better warrior, the better
1054
01:00:57.639 --> 01:01:00.199
brave by look what I can do. I can run up,
1055
01:01:00.199 --> 01:01:03.039
slap your house, and run away, and I've just won
1056
01:01:03.199 --> 01:01:06.119
up to you by showing you that I'm a I'm
1057
01:01:06.119 --> 01:01:09.039
a better warrior of sorts.
1058
01:01:10.159 --> 01:01:14.480
Yes, but the teachings of Sasquatch tell us you got
1059
01:01:14.480 --> 01:01:18.840
to tone that one down a bit because they liked
1060
01:01:18.880 --> 01:01:22.599
to jest. So hitting the house, yeah, it's funny games.
1061
01:01:22.800 --> 01:01:27.199
You know, someone's looking at the window. So that I
1062
01:01:27.320 --> 01:01:30.199
spent that bit tout me stuck out. They stood up,
1063
01:01:30.280 --> 01:01:32.679
looked like they're gonna see themselves. That was a good one.
1064
01:01:32.719 --> 01:01:35.239
We've got to do that again next week. Yes, that's
1065
01:01:35.360 --> 01:01:42.960
is happening, warrior. I'm better than you. Absolutely. At the Union,
1066
01:01:43.920 --> 01:01:46.719
you know, you had to go in and steal a horse.
1067
01:01:46.920 --> 01:01:50.480
You had to go in and bring an enemy's heart
1068
01:01:50.559 --> 01:01:53.639
from their camp. You had to go in and do this,
1069
01:01:53.840 --> 01:01:56.840
steal their food, we I've even done it. Went into
1070
01:01:56.880 --> 01:01:59.440
a military exercise one time up with the head of
1071
01:01:59.480 --> 01:02:02.360
one of the inns, and US Indian teenagers snuck in,
1072
01:02:02.519 --> 01:02:05.360
stole their platters of chicken in the flat of coca cola,
1073
01:02:05.639 --> 01:02:07.039
and then all of a sudden, next thing, you know,
1074
01:02:07.039 --> 01:02:09.320
we had all these army guys from Canada pointing their
1075
01:02:09.360 --> 01:02:12.440
guns at us. You know, they had blanks, but basically
1076
01:02:12.440 --> 01:02:15.199
it was that same thing up. We opped it up.
1077
01:02:15.239 --> 01:02:17.760
As you know, they don't know who took their chicken
1078
01:02:17.800 --> 01:02:20.480
and coca cola, but they opped it by finding us.
1079
01:02:21.199 --> 01:02:24.880
We didn't have helicopters. But the big one is.
1080
01:02:26.360 --> 01:02:26.840
Fed me.
1081
01:02:27.360 --> 01:02:32.039
I'm hungry. That's the huge one. In my years of
1082
01:02:32.599 --> 01:02:39.039
investigating be it Omaha Indian Reserve, Northwest Territories, Canada, British Columbia,
1083
01:02:39.679 --> 01:02:44.320
Washington State, other places, it's always seems to be the
1084
01:02:44.400 --> 01:02:49.599
same dangang, Oh, I'm gonna put some food up. Next thing,
1085
01:02:49.599 --> 01:02:51.519
you know, it's oh yeah, stopped it. I just make
1086
01:02:51.559 --> 01:02:53.480
sure I put food out once a week, once every
1087
01:02:53.519 --> 01:02:56.519
ten days, and I don't have that problem other places.
1088
01:02:56.519 --> 01:02:59.280
Oh no, we got a o my Indians. Everyone has
1089
01:02:59.320 --> 01:03:02.320
a plastic bucket. You know. We in the Urban Environment
1090
01:03:02.360 --> 01:03:05.800
in Washington State have green bins and a bucket on
1091
01:03:05.840 --> 01:03:11.880
our counter with a compostable green plastic bang and we
1092
01:03:12.000 --> 01:03:13.719
bring it out and put it in the green dumpster
1093
01:03:13.920 --> 01:03:17.840
and once every two weeks it's brought the composting. So
1094
01:03:19.119 --> 01:03:21.719
with the SaaS in Omaha Indian Reserve, they just have
1095
01:03:21.800 --> 01:03:25.159
a payoff and they scrape all the food refuse in
1096
01:03:25.199 --> 01:03:28.159
there through the day. We have pato peelings, carrot peelings,
1097
01:03:28.239 --> 01:03:32.079
leftover food, you'd name it spoiled food. And just before dark,
1098
01:03:32.119 --> 01:03:34.119
one of the kids will vote or someone's the house
1099
01:03:34.159 --> 01:03:37.079
and throw it into the bushes behind the house. And
1100
01:03:37.159 --> 01:03:42.360
if they don't do that, pictures moving on the walls.
1101
01:03:42.840 --> 01:03:45.960
That's a sass sea tonga saying hey, feed me here.
1102
01:03:46.800 --> 01:03:51.519
And they're habituated by the humans. And so when I
1103
01:03:51.559 --> 01:03:54.119
get called in or someone contacts me and says we
1104
01:03:54.360 --> 01:03:58.400
our house got bang ed. We suspected sasquatch. What do
1105
01:03:58.440 --> 01:04:02.000
we do? Put a trail camera on all four corners.
1106
01:04:02.039 --> 01:04:05.599
Whoever a sasquatch come to your property? Game, you know,
1107
01:04:05.679 --> 01:04:08.639
because it seems to be what apps you know. I
1108
01:04:08.639 --> 01:04:11.239
got thirty trail cameras with Peggy and I and our
1109
01:04:11.239 --> 01:04:14.639
team out in the field and more to go. But
1110
01:04:14.840 --> 01:04:19.360
we've captured two grainy, blurry pictures of a sasquatch to date,
1111
01:04:19.960 --> 01:04:23.840
but right now we got a my shirt squatch. Watch
1112
01:04:23.880 --> 01:04:28.880
your ranch. We're gonna be leaving after the podcast, going
1113
01:04:28.920 --> 01:04:32.440
to one hundred and plus acre private hire in your
1114
01:04:32.480 --> 01:04:35.239
homestead sixty one year old to ninety six year old
1115
01:04:35.519 --> 01:04:39.079
family members and five houses spread out through the acreage
1116
01:04:39.079 --> 01:04:44.119
with apple trees planted in the forties and fences around
1117
01:04:44.199 --> 01:04:48.159
the major apple orchard. All the apples are been planted
1118
01:04:48.199 --> 01:04:51.519
by a brother who's still there, Dave, for one reason
1119
01:04:51.920 --> 01:04:54.880
to feed the animals. Well, little did they know they
1120
01:04:54.880 --> 01:04:57.480
were feeding the sasquatches too, because when they called me
1121
01:04:57.559 --> 01:05:00.960
in their last year with Peggy and Steve our partner
1122
01:05:01.079 --> 01:05:04.599
and investigating here in the peninsula, there's an eight foot
1123
01:05:04.639 --> 01:05:08.199
sex in a four inch by four inch steel mesh
1124
01:05:08.760 --> 01:05:12.119
fence pulled away. But if bear had done it, he
1125
01:05:12.119 --> 01:05:14.039
would have left it just wide enough for a bear
1126
01:05:14.119 --> 01:05:17.320
to get his big button there. But a sasquatch goes
1127
01:05:17.360 --> 01:05:19.920
there tears it out. We know he's eight foot four
1128
01:05:19.960 --> 01:05:22.199
because the tree break. Can you measure a tree break
1129
01:05:22.239 --> 01:05:25.239
from the ground, that's how high the dominant biggest Sasquatches
1130
01:05:25.440 --> 01:05:29.280
the family clan. Well, he's eight foot four, eight foot six,
1131
01:05:29.800 --> 01:05:31.639
so when he grabbed that fence and tore it out,
1132
01:05:31.679 --> 01:05:34.880
he brought it out ninety degrees so that when him
1133
01:05:34.920 --> 01:05:37.519
and his eight family members clan go in there to
1134
01:05:37.559 --> 01:05:41.079
eat apples when they're at time time, and the gate's
1135
01:05:41.159 --> 01:05:43.079
up until he rips it out because he doesn't want
1136
01:05:43.079 --> 01:05:47.400
the elk in there, and him and his family are
1137
01:05:47.440 --> 01:05:49.159
in there, and all of a sudden the hairless bipeedle
1138
01:05:49.239 --> 01:05:52.559
might come down into the lower orchard. They candid and
1139
01:05:52.639 --> 01:05:54.519
skid out and get the hell out of there without
1140
01:05:54.679 --> 01:05:57.960
going single files through a narrow little opening. That's why
1141
01:05:58.000 --> 01:06:00.239
he opened it up. So now I got cameras up
1142
01:06:00.239 --> 01:06:02.440
on the branches and more to go and on the
1143
01:06:02.519 --> 01:06:06.519
trees fence posts looking at the fenced in orchard area
1144
01:06:07.079 --> 01:06:09.559
and hopefully we're gonna get a bingo and smile for
1145
01:06:09.599 --> 01:06:12.320
the birdie. We got you bagged in tag video and
1146
01:06:12.400 --> 01:06:17.280
stills on numerous cameras because if they can see which
1147
01:06:17.280 --> 01:06:23.000
I know they can, or smell the electronic equipment, hunger
1148
01:06:23.079 --> 01:06:26.159
always gets the better of you. You've been there, done it,
1149
01:06:26.239 --> 01:06:29.119
Every human does. It's just like, oh, I know I
1150
01:06:29.119 --> 01:06:31.639
shouldn't go to taco time, but man, that's the only
1151
01:06:31.679 --> 01:06:33.599
fast food joint open at one point thirty in the
1152
01:06:33.599 --> 01:06:35.480
morning when I'm off work. But man, I'm gonna get
1153
01:06:35.480 --> 01:06:38.480
the Hershey Squirts for the next two days. But I'm hungered.
1154
01:06:39.480 --> 01:06:43.000
Hunger drives us to stupidity and to do things we
1155
01:06:43.039 --> 01:06:47.599
shouldn't do. And that means breaking infrared barriers or going
1156
01:06:47.679 --> 01:06:51.199
near the smell of batteries and plastic. So be it.
1157
01:06:51.719 --> 01:06:55.840
When that fast squatch reaches up eleven feet to that tree,
1158
01:06:56.360 --> 01:06:59.039
smile for the birdie that trail camera is looking right
1159
01:06:59.079 --> 01:07:01.400
down on it. You know, no one's ever done that,
1160
01:07:01.519 --> 01:07:03.679
I don't think. And that's what you got to do
1161
01:07:03.760 --> 01:07:07.599
with sasquatch ology, the investigating part of it. You got
1162
01:07:07.599 --> 01:07:10.400
to be like an Indian. We call it Indian nuity.
1163
01:07:10.440 --> 01:07:13.639
You've got to change things up, and you know, I
1164
01:07:13.800 --> 01:07:15.320
like it. Hopefully we'll get them.
1165
01:07:16.719 --> 01:07:19.679
Hopefully, I hope so as well. You know that would
1166
01:07:19.719 --> 01:07:22.239
benefit so many people to actually be like look it,
1167
01:07:22.679 --> 01:07:25.880
here we go, clear picture, not a blurry, grainy picture.
1168
01:07:26.119 --> 01:07:28.480
Now I got two more questions for you, Thomas. What
1169
01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:32.840
is the last event or sighting of a Sasquatch you've
1170
01:07:32.880 --> 01:07:35.400
had is it with when even taking people out or
1171
01:07:35.519 --> 01:07:37.480
was it on your own? What was the last time
1172
01:07:37.480 --> 01:07:39.360
you've seen oneright?
1173
01:07:39.599 --> 01:07:42.440
First week right here on the Olympic pennsil I do
1174
01:07:42.519 --> 01:07:47.159
investigation investigating trips, so I charge people to come with
1175
01:07:47.159 --> 01:07:49.920
me at different levels. It's all on Sasquatch Island dot
1176
01:07:49.960 --> 01:07:54.119
Com on the expeditions page. But this woman investigator got
1177
01:07:54.159 --> 01:07:56.239
a hold of me and she came up from Oregon.
1178
01:07:57.000 --> 01:08:00.000
Real nice trump by the way, with the Native Sasquatch
1179
01:08:00.039 --> 01:08:03.800
silhouettes and everything. And she donated to me tree breaks
1180
01:08:03.880 --> 01:08:08.639
she's found and molds for a twenty one inch truck
1181
01:08:09.159 --> 01:08:13.079
and hand the size of a baseball glove mold, and
1182
01:08:14.039 --> 01:08:17.319
you know, because I'm building the museums Sasquatch Legend dot com.
1183
01:08:18.279 --> 01:08:20.880
And she drove for six and a half hours. I
1184
01:08:20.920 --> 01:08:22.920
gave her dinner here in the house. She's gonna stay
1185
01:08:22.920 --> 01:08:25.800
in the famous Patty Ninth Room nineteen sixty seven, two
1186
01:08:25.920 --> 01:08:29.399
queen beds, all Patty Bob Gimlin stuff in there. And
1187
01:08:30.359 --> 01:08:32.319
I said, I know, he drove six and a half hours,
1188
01:08:32.319 --> 01:08:35.000
but it is the first week of March. It's winter technically,
1189
01:08:35.039 --> 01:08:38.039
and when me and Steve Peggy if she's here, but
1190
01:08:38.119 --> 01:08:41.079
she isn't. But if we have a nice night like
1191
01:08:41.119 --> 01:08:46.239
tonight with no rain, wind wounds out, we go investigating Sasquatch.
1192
01:08:46.319 --> 01:08:48.920
We just bought like forty to sixty thousand dollars worth
1193
01:08:48.960 --> 01:08:53.560
of used night vision equipment and it's amazing. Oh, I
1194
01:08:53.560 --> 01:08:55.359
don't care all the tire room, let's go. So we
1195
01:08:55.439 --> 01:08:57.439
jumped in her truck, picked up Steve, went up this
1196
01:08:57.600 --> 01:09:01.000
road where the squats Watcher ranches and we didn't want
1197
01:09:01.039 --> 01:09:03.520
to bring her in there because we didn't make arrangements.
1198
01:09:03.520 --> 01:09:06.479
We have a contract with them. But anyway, we're just
1199
01:09:06.560 --> 01:09:11.039
outside there driveway road and the logging slash and a
1200
01:09:11.119 --> 01:09:15.039
deer walks acrosscess with years down lopie like a bloodhound
1201
01:09:15.359 --> 01:09:17.880
tail between his legs and it's kind of crouched low.
1202
01:09:18.319 --> 01:09:21.520
That's a sign of a terrified deer. So I'm like shocking,
1203
01:09:22.079 --> 01:09:23.880
and I look out the back window of the truck
1204
01:09:23.920 --> 01:09:26.279
with the night vision. Now there's half a dozen bedded
1205
01:09:26.319 --> 01:09:28.760
down out so the right away all night vision scopes
1206
01:09:28.840 --> 01:09:31.760
come out and they're looking. But I had to wherewith
1207
01:09:31.840 --> 01:09:34.439
all the look at the mist going across the ground
1208
01:09:34.479 --> 01:09:38.079
and from the nose of the bedded down out and
1209
01:09:38.159 --> 01:09:41.239
I looked downward and there, I said, hey, standing in
1210
01:09:41.279 --> 01:09:43.279
the trees there, that island of trees abou one hundred
1211
01:09:43.279 --> 01:09:45.880
and eighty yards away. That's something big. And all of
1212
01:09:45.880 --> 01:09:48.439
a sudden, all two of them turned. Holy smokes, that's
1213
01:09:48.439 --> 01:09:52.560
a sasquatch. We're all looking and it's just standing there.
1214
01:09:52.600 --> 01:09:56.279
See the head, shoulders, arms, and in between his legs.
1215
01:09:56.319 --> 01:10:00.000
It's not a stump. And I'm like, okay, I'm gonna
1216
01:10:00.159 --> 01:10:02.680
outside and and grab my spot leg get ready, And
1217
01:10:02.720 --> 01:10:05.000
I got the big scope. It's my turn now. And
1218
01:10:05.119 --> 01:10:08.680
I got the big scope outside and I go. When
1219
01:10:08.680 --> 01:10:10.359
I go three two one, I'll hit the light on.
1220
01:10:10.600 --> 01:10:13.239
Get ready Steve with your cell camera to start recording.
1221
01:10:13.840 --> 01:10:16.880
Three two one click, no eye shine. Couldn't see the
1222
01:10:16.880 --> 01:10:20.920
sasquatch too much mess, turned it off, brought up my scope.
1223
01:10:21.560 --> 01:10:23.760
Just the same time I'm bringing my scope up, I
1224
01:10:23.800 --> 01:10:27.960
hear the girl. It just dropped, Steve go, yeah, just
1225
01:10:28.079 --> 01:10:30.760
draped to the ground. And I'm looking and that's when
1226
01:10:30.800 --> 01:10:33.840
I can see the butts and the crack of its button,
1227
01:10:33.960 --> 01:10:36.760
soles of its feet as it's crawling through the ferns,
1228
01:10:36.800 --> 01:10:39.359
and the ferns are about three feet high, and you
1229
01:10:39.359 --> 01:10:41.800
can see it perfectly, and I'll said, it disappears, goes
1230
01:10:41.840 --> 01:10:43.800
to the black. It's in the ferns, and all of a
1231
01:10:43.800 --> 01:10:47.039
sudden I see it stand up and just boom boom boom,
1232
01:10:47.279 --> 01:10:51.159
walking away from us with the indicative feet boat coming up.
1233
01:10:51.199 --> 01:10:53.439
And see the white gray soles of its feet and
1234
01:10:53.439 --> 01:10:56.479
the heat sig on it and it just disappears, like
1235
01:10:56.560 --> 01:10:59.039
I always teld it. And then a cloak. It went
1236
01:10:59.079 --> 01:11:02.560
through a porthal. No, that's all bunk and bs. It
1237
01:11:02.640 --> 01:11:05.560
got out of range and the scope and vanished into
1238
01:11:05.640 --> 01:11:09.319
the gloom. And we had twelve or thirteen minutes of
1239
01:11:09.439 --> 01:11:12.399
witnessing a sasquatch night vision in March. You know, it's
1240
01:11:12.560 --> 01:11:15.279
one of the many times I've seen them. I wish
1241
01:11:15.319 --> 01:11:18.199
I had night vision and trail cameras back in the day,
1242
01:11:18.319 --> 01:11:20.319
because when I lived out in bush Man, I would
1243
01:11:20.319 --> 01:11:22.279
have got some probably would have been on the cover
1244
01:11:22.319 --> 01:11:25.720
of National Agreographic by now or some Canadian magazine.
1245
01:11:25.720 --> 01:11:28.439
You would have been a Jane Goodall sitting there with it.
1246
01:11:28.560 --> 01:11:32.800
Yes, I'm trying for an interaction that's never happened. The
1247
01:11:32.800 --> 01:11:35.960
ones that are up in my traditional territory, they don't
1248
01:11:36.039 --> 01:11:38.640
like me and the ones down here, they're really elusive.
1249
01:11:39.159 --> 01:11:44.600
Fair enough, fair enough, Now, Thomas Sasquatch Somonism, Are you
1250
01:11:44.680 --> 01:11:46.960
going to write a book? I think that would be
1251
01:11:47.119 --> 01:11:48.880
a perfect thing, to write a book and to pass
1252
01:11:48.920 --> 01:11:51.279
this information on that way. Are you thinking about doing
1253
01:11:51.319 --> 01:11:52.000
something like that?
1254
01:11:52.800 --> 01:11:58.560
Absolutely? I already wrote a magazine book called Sasquatch Island Magazine.
1255
01:11:58.760 --> 01:12:01.199
We saw it in the store and online at sasquatch
1256
01:12:01.279 --> 01:12:04.119
Legend dot com. Yes, I'm going to write a book,
1257
01:12:04.159 --> 01:12:05.880
but one of the best things I could pass on
1258
01:12:06.079 --> 01:12:09.319
is In the last month three weeks, I've been working
1259
01:12:09.359 --> 01:12:14.800
with Matt Parrish. He has a YouTube channel called Olympic
1260
01:12:14.840 --> 01:12:18.319
Peninsula Sasquatching Beyond. He's a friend of Peggy and I
1261
01:12:18.399 --> 01:12:21.399
and Steve's. We've been He invited us to his house
1262
01:12:21.439 --> 01:12:24.279
down in Lake Funault probably two years ago now in
1263
01:12:24.319 --> 01:12:27.239
the winter a lot of sasquatch activity. We lent him
1264
01:12:27.239 --> 01:12:29.800
a bunch of our electronic equipment and he just reminded
1265
01:12:29.840 --> 01:12:33.479
me again. Last night. Steve showed a picture of the
1266
01:12:33.479 --> 01:12:37.199
flur image of two red orange heat SIGs of a
1267
01:12:37.279 --> 01:12:41.000
sasquatch hiding behind a tree halfway and another one behind
1268
01:12:41.000 --> 01:12:44.359
the fallen log in his backyard not sixty feet away
1269
01:12:44.359 --> 01:12:49.159
from her. So Matt's gone on this new opened a
1270
01:12:49.199 --> 01:12:57.640
new door. He's utilizing AI on a positive level to enthrall, mesmerize, educate,
1271
01:12:57.800 --> 01:13:01.600
and entertain the living beg us out at all. He
1272
01:13:01.720 --> 01:13:06.640
did my first episode Sasquatch Island, and he just released
1273
01:13:06.640 --> 01:13:10.239
eight o'clock last night, five of Us under an eight
1274
01:13:10.279 --> 01:13:15.279
bye canopy with a Jackerie power box that Peggy bought
1275
01:13:15.399 --> 01:13:19.239
and Starlink receiver. We're out in the middle of tim
1276
01:13:19.279 --> 01:13:21.439
Buck nowhere you can't even get cell bars and we're
1277
01:13:21.479 --> 01:13:25.199
watching a live feed the YouTube release premiere of the
1278
01:13:25.239 --> 01:13:29.640
second episode. I highly recommend watching both back to back
1279
01:13:30.079 --> 01:13:33.239
if you want to. Because when Mack came to me,
1280
01:13:33.279 --> 01:13:35.439
because I had so many podcasts and I always changed
1281
01:13:35.479 --> 01:13:37.560
it up, like even you tonight, I really changed it.
1282
01:13:37.600 --> 01:13:40.479
I went opened the door of the Sasquatch shamanism for you,
1283
01:13:41.079 --> 01:13:43.800
And after doing research on your podcast and seeing how
1284
01:13:43.840 --> 01:13:45.760
big you are and how fast you're going up, I
1285
01:13:45.840 --> 01:13:48.439
thought got to kick it up for him too. Can't
1286
01:13:48.439 --> 01:13:52.119
just be the same old guys on part Tom, you know,
1287
01:13:52.319 --> 01:13:56.840
so doing that, I highly recommend watching Matt get mad
1288
01:13:56.880 --> 01:13:58.479
on one of your shows. Invite him on.
1289
01:13:58.960 --> 01:13:59.720
He's I will.
1290
01:14:00.239 --> 01:14:03.560
He opened the door and he's paving the way for
1291
01:14:03.680 --> 01:14:07.680
something that is grand for Sasquatch Ology and for a
1292
01:14:07.720 --> 01:14:10.760
production of shows and that Like I kid you not,
1293
01:14:10.840 --> 01:14:12.880
You're going to see the AI and bust the gut.
1294
01:14:13.159 --> 01:14:15.159
You're going to see the part about doctor John Bender
1295
01:14:15.199 --> 01:14:17.279
Dangle in the second one and my connection to the
1296
01:14:17.359 --> 01:14:20.119
late doctor John Bender Nagel. Last night I was so
1297
01:14:20.159 --> 01:14:22.119
I'm not allowed to cry because I'm Mohammas had a
1298
01:14:22.159 --> 01:14:25.560
secret society of my tribe, so I'm forbidden the shed teer.
1299
01:14:25.640 --> 01:14:27.399
But last night I I was allowed to shed tear.
1300
01:14:27.439 --> 01:14:30.159
I would have when he brought that AI part of
1301
01:14:30.239 --> 01:14:33.479
doctor John Bender Nagel and my relationship with him. He
1302
01:14:33.560 --> 01:14:37.319
even did something that John never did. He Ai John
1303
01:14:37.359 --> 01:14:38.800
with his arm around my shoulder.
1304
01:14:40.279 --> 01:14:41.359
Oh that's fantastic.
1305
01:14:42.239 --> 01:14:45.319
Yeah, a lot of people just then, you know, get
1306
01:14:45.319 --> 01:14:48.520
a hold of me sasquatchiland dot com. That's my website
1307
01:14:48.560 --> 01:14:49.279
from my native art.
1308
01:14:49.880 --> 01:14:51.319
I was just about to que you.
1309
01:14:51.800 --> 01:14:54.279
I was just about to say, Tomas, where can everybody
1310
01:14:54.319 --> 01:14:58.159
finds you? But you intuitively knew that that's where this
1311
01:14:58.279 --> 01:15:01.560
was going. So yeah, again, let's let's let's start here
1312
01:15:01.560 --> 01:15:03.960
from the beginning. Where can everybody finds? You go to
1313
01:15:04.039 --> 01:15:07.199
Sasquatch Island dot com. My website it scott You know
1314
01:15:07.239 --> 01:15:10.680
a little blurb on who we are, expeditions, my native art.
1315
01:15:10.720 --> 01:15:14.720
I specialize in Sasquatch West Coast native art and drums
1316
01:15:14.720 --> 01:15:20.159
and bowls and other things. And we have a homepage.
1317
01:15:20.279 --> 01:15:21.399
We scroll to the bottom.
1318
01:15:21.479 --> 01:15:24.000
We have one of our team members and her husband
1319
01:15:24.000 --> 01:15:27.960
from Vancouv Island, Carrie kill Murray class and she'll never
1320
01:15:28.000 --> 01:15:30.560
do an interview. She's stage fear, but I do the
1321
01:15:30.640 --> 01:15:35.000
looking for But she's made three amazing maps. One is mine,
1322
01:15:35.319 --> 01:15:38.119
one is Western Canada, US and the other one is
1323
01:15:38.119 --> 01:15:41.600
the Olympic Peninsula. They are interactive. You touch the icon
1324
01:15:41.640 --> 01:15:46.199
of a Sasquatch silhouette balloon pops up that sighting encounter footprint,
1325
01:15:46.319 --> 01:15:51.239
footprints were found. Here's their encounter report bullhorn. That was
1326
01:15:51.279 --> 01:15:53.920
a vocalization. This is what they heard and when and
1327
01:15:53.960 --> 01:15:57.479
so forth. And the website's good. But it also has
1328
01:15:57.560 --> 01:15:59.920
the podcast page, which you'll be sending me a la
1329
01:16:00.159 --> 01:16:02.319
and my wife will put it on there so that
1330
01:16:02.399 --> 01:16:04.800
when people go where can I listen to your podcast?
1331
01:16:04.920 --> 01:16:07.239
I found it's easier to head them off at the
1332
01:16:07.319 --> 01:16:09.720
past and just bring in all the podcasts that are
1333
01:16:09.760 --> 01:16:12.359
good for them on the podcast page so they can
1334
01:16:12.399 --> 01:16:17.399
be entertained and shralled, mesmerized by the podcasters videocasters and
1335
01:16:17.560 --> 01:16:21.159
listen to me for quite a few hours and they'll
1336
01:16:21.199 --> 01:16:25.880
get their money's worth. And the other one is Sasquatch
1337
01:16:25.880 --> 01:16:30.439
Island Facebook group Sasquatch Communism. My role is to educate
1338
01:16:30.600 --> 01:16:33.479
and teach call so that they too can have a
1339
01:16:33.479 --> 01:16:36.560
close encounter of the hairy kind like I have many times.
1340
01:16:37.079 --> 01:16:40.840
And by going to Sasquatch Island on Facebook and scrolling
1341
01:16:40.920 --> 01:16:43.239
away and reading right to when I began it in
1342
01:16:43.279 --> 01:16:47.960
twenty fifteen, you guaranteed you will have a way better
1343
01:16:48.039 --> 01:16:50.880
chance of getting close to a sasquatch in your region,
1344
01:16:50.960 --> 01:16:55.720
not this specific northwest. All the trickery and things I've learned,
1345
01:16:55.800 --> 01:17:01.279
hunting skills, fishing skills, seasonal migrational patterns for abundance, it's
1346
01:17:01.319 --> 01:17:05.239
all there. And of course you can go to Sasquatch
1347
01:17:05.279 --> 01:17:08.640
Island YouTube channel and travel the British Columbia coast when
1348
01:17:08.680 --> 01:17:11.520
I was a commercial fisherman seeing sasquatch areas and reports
1349
01:17:12.000 --> 01:17:16.760
and if you want to be entertained TikTok Sasquatch Island,
1350
01:17:17.039 --> 01:17:17.840
But I thank you all.
1351
01:17:17.960 --> 01:17:23.119
There we go a Thomas, Yeah, I definitely, definitely.
1352
01:17:23.199 --> 01:17:24.880
I think you got way more stories that we can
1353
01:17:24.920 --> 01:17:26.840
actually sit down and have another hour and a half
1354
01:17:26.840 --> 01:17:29.439
conversation and go through some more stories. And you're talking
1355
01:17:29.439 --> 01:17:33.279
about this interactive map. I actually just created one for
1356
01:17:33.399 --> 01:17:36.840
my own show as well. So I started last week
1357
01:17:36.960 --> 01:17:39.479
and I created a interactive map of all the episodes
1358
01:17:39.520 --> 01:17:42.840
and where these locations are, and it changes because of
1359
01:17:42.840 --> 01:17:48.199
course I don't do just Bigfoot, I do Bigfoot, dog Man, UFOs, everything.
1360
01:17:48.319 --> 01:17:52.359
So I've created this interactive globe that has a little
1361
01:17:52.399 --> 01:17:55.159
bit of it's gamified, so you know, if you complete
1362
01:17:55.159 --> 01:17:58.119
these tasks, you'll level up. The more you watch, the
1363
01:17:58.159 --> 01:18:00.359
more you like and comment, it'll level you up and
1364
01:18:00.399 --> 01:18:02.920
then you'll gain access to more things. So I'll be happy.
1365
01:18:02.960 --> 01:18:05.439
I'm be more than happy to put your episode on
1366
01:18:05.600 --> 01:18:07.159
there as well. So we have to figure out which
1367
01:18:07.199 --> 01:18:10.479
location we're gonna, you know, put it on, maybe the
1368
01:18:10.520 --> 01:18:15.199
initial story there in British Columbia. So Thomas, again, thank
1369
01:18:15.239 --> 01:18:17.279
you so much for your time. I really appreciated it.
1370
01:18:17.640 --> 01:18:19.159
Thank you very much for having me on and to
1371
01:18:19.239 --> 01:18:22.079
all the listeners and watchers a loculusla go in peace.
1372
01:18:23.279 --> 01:18:24.239
Well there you guys have it.
1373
01:18:24.399 --> 01:18:29.600
Thomas Sewood A, I don't know, just so much information,
1374
01:18:30.000 --> 01:18:34.520
and I'm very interested in his sasquatch shamanism. I think
1375
01:18:34.640 --> 01:18:38.239
him writing a book about it would be fantastic. You know,
1376
01:18:38.319 --> 01:18:40.680
spread that information, spread that wealth, and there will be
1377
01:18:40.720 --> 01:18:42.520
in exchange as well. You know, you buy the book
1378
01:18:42.800 --> 01:18:47.960
and then you gain the information and very interesting, really
1379
01:18:48.000 --> 01:18:53.319
great storyteller as well. And that relationship with that respect,
1380
01:18:53.479 --> 01:18:55.439
you know, it really shows you how.
1381
01:18:55.159 --> 01:18:59.119
These creatures view us as well.
1382
01:18:59.199 --> 01:19:02.000
Yeah, you can build that respect, but you can see
1383
01:19:02.000 --> 01:19:06.000
that they're not too fond of us. You know, we're
1384
01:19:06.000 --> 01:19:10.479
going in cotton down, cracking, doing all these kinds of things,
1385
01:19:10.840 --> 01:19:13.399
causing us damage. Maybe we need to take a step
1386
01:19:13.399 --> 01:19:19.640
back and not not try to, you know, invade their house,
1387
01:19:20.159 --> 01:19:22.880
because if we do that too often, they're going to
1388
01:19:22.920 --> 01:19:27.800
be invading hours and until next time. Everyone, keep curiosity wandering,
1389
01:19:28.159 --> 01:19:31.479
keep the light lit, and always find you way home.
1390
01:19:43.159 --> 01:19:49.960
But at the stars where shadows grow, benevolence, echoes, whisper low,
1391
01:19:51.920 --> 01:19:57.359
bigfoot ROMs through the forest deep, and dog man proud,
1392
01:19:57.439 --> 01:20:02.079
where the prey won't sleep across our history.
1393
01:20:02.279 --> 01:20:03.680
